Arthritis
Arthritis
Arthritis is inflammation of a joint, most commonly the wear-related osteoarthritis that affects knees, hips, hands and the spine. It cannot be reversed, but pain and function can usually be improved a great deal.
Managing It Long Term
The aim is to keep the joint moving and the surrounding muscle strong, control inflammation, and reduce the load on the joint through mechanics and, where useful, orthotics.
How We Can Help
- On-site digital X-ray imaging to assess the joint
- Physical therapy and low-impact strengthening
- Manual therapy and joint mobilization to maintain motion
- Therapeutic ultrasound and cold laser therapy for inflammation
- Injection therapy and orthopedic referral for advanced arthritis
