physical therapy

Physical therapy can be extremely beneficial and helpful in the management of Osteoarthritis (OA) and Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). For example, a physical therapist may recommend the following:

  • Strength Training

    • Isometric (“pushing”) exercises to help build muscle strength without subjecting inflamed joints to excessive wear.

    • Isotonic (“pulling”) exercises to further increase muscle strength and help preserve function.

  • Range of Motion exercises.

  • Flexibility exercises.

  • Daily walking, using a cane or other assistive device as needed
