Dominic Richmond - Knee Physio

04/07/2026

Standing over 140kg deadlift on my comeback gym session, I was reflecting on a busy 18 months. 18 months ago I had my first back injury accompanied with sciatica. Complete foot numbness, sciatic pain down my leg, and a back that reminded me daily why six months of nappy changes and lifting a growing human will humble you fast.

The comeback wasn’t linear. Lots going on along the way. Starting a business. Building a research career. Proving myself alongside surgeons. Finishing my Masters. Getting published in ACL rehab. Meanwhile, the gym went from twice weekly to once a month…sometimes NOTHING!

But here’s what I learned: consistency doesn’t mean perfect. It means showing up when you can. One session counts. Two counts more. And the days when life is chaos? That’s when you find out what actually matters.

I’m still resilient physically and I know how to stay!

Most people just want their knee to work again. Fair enough.

But how it gets there matters.

Alongside clinical work, I’m heavily involved in research because the best rehab is built on more than good intentions and Instagram exercises. It’s built on evidence, outcomes, and systems that actually work in the real world.

This year I’m 1 in 23 from the entire East of England starting the Healthcare Research Internship, sponsored by the NIHR. The focus is translating high-quality research into better patient care, not papers that sit unread on a shelf.

Why should you care as a client?

Because it means your rehab isn’t guesswork.

It means decisions are tested, not trendy.
It means your programme is designed using what actually improves recovery, return to sport, and long-term knee health.

You bring the goal.

I bring the clinical experience, the research lens, and the systems behind it.

Strong knees are built deliberately, not accidentally.

IntroductionI’ve had sore knees for as long as I can remember — long before I became a physiotherapist. As a teenager, I battled Osgood–Schlatter’s disease & patellofemoral pain; later, it was patellar tendinopathy, meniscal injuries, and even a patellar subluxation. When standard NHS physio...
