Did you know that 520 million people around the world have osteoarthritis? Fortunately, physiotherapy can help you manage your osteoarthritis (OA).
Basically, exercise and physical activity are safe and evidence-based first line management strategies for osteoarthritis. In addition to helping you choose the best exercises, physiotherapists provide advice and education on pain relief and ways to manage OA. Our team at Advanced Physiotherapy will teach you how to improve your joint movement and your walking as well as provide muscle strength and conditioning tips.
If you are at the stage where you are considering a joint replacement, we can provide both pre and post operative support. We will help prepare you to get the maximum benefit from the surgery and help you recover after the procedure.
Thanks to World Physiotherapy for creating this terrific information sheet on exercising with osteoarthritis.
