Arthroscopy and meniscus repair procedures have transformed the way knee injuries are treated — allowing patients to recover faster, experience less pain, and return to daily activities sooner.

Using minimally invasive techniques, arthroscopy enables surgeons to diagnose and treat knee problems through small incisions with greater precision. Meniscus repair focuses on preserving the knee’s natural cartilage, which is essential for long-term joint health and mobility.

Whether caused by sports injuries, exercise, or everyday wear and tear, early assessment and treatment can make a significant difference in recovery outcomes.

Healthy knees mean better movement, stronger performance, and improved quality of life. Don’t ignore persistent knee pain, swelling, or locking symptoms — getting evaluated early matters.

One of the most common knee injuries in netball is an ACL tear, often caused by sudden stops, pivots, or awkward landings. Players may feel a “pop,” followed by pain, swelling, and instability.

A complete ACL tear rarely heals on its own and typically requires surgical reconstruction to restore knee stability and allow a safe return to sport. At Winelands Knee Clinic, we specialise in the accurate diagnosis and surgical management of ACL injuries. After surgery, patients are referred for further rehabilitation with physiotherapists and biokineticists to ensure a safe and strong return to activity.
