How Physiotherapy Can Help Arthritis

Our physiotherapists can help you:

                         ✓ Reduce pain

                         ✓ Improve joint mobility

                         ✓ Build strength around affected joints

                         ✓ Improve balance and confidence

                         ✓ Delay or avoid unnecessary interventions where possible

​

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and commonly affects the knees, hips, hands and spine. While changes seen on scans are common as we age, they do not always explain pain levels. 

 

Every case of arthritis is different. We assess your symptoms, goals and lifestyle before creating a personalised treatment plan.​
