Osteoarthritis is probably the most common form of arthritis. It occurs
when the cartilage covering the end of bones becomes thin and worn, making
the joints stiff and painful to move.
Osteoarthritis develops gradually over
years, most often affecting knees, hips, feet, hands, and sometimes the neck
and lower back.
Physiotherapy plays an important role in treating this painful condition.
After assessing your mobility and range of movement, the physiotherapist
will devise a treatment programme.
A
range of techniques are used to relieve pain and stiffness, and to improve
mobility, co-ordination and posture. Manipulation and tailored exercises
help to ease pain, build stamina and mobilise joints.
