Arthritis and Exercise: The Truth About Movement

 

 

  • Myth #1   "If I exercise, the arthritis will "flare up" and I won't be able to move"

  • Truth:  Exercise and physical therapy reduces pain from arthritis and improve quality of life. (JOSPT 2008). 

    • We often believe that rest is the key to recovery and blame our activity and workloads for our aliments.   The truth is, however, that exercise supervised by a healthcare professional is the best medicine for restoration of joint health and pain from arthritis.  At Concierge PT, we teach you to move again without pain.
