Relieve Arthritis Pain with Physical Therapy
Arthritis is a common condition affecting millions, causing joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility that can make daily tasks challenging. Physical therapy provides a holistic approach to managing arthritis symptoms, helping restore movement and improve your quality of life.
Understanding Arthritis and Its Impact
Arthritis refers to joint inflammation that leads to discomfort and stiffness, especially in areas like the knees, hips, spine, and hands. While there are over 100 types of arthritis, the most common include:
- Osteoarthritis: The most prevalent type, caused by cartilage breakdown from wear and tear.
- Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune condition that inflames joints, causing pain, swelling, and eventual joint damage.
- Psoriatic Arthritis: Linked to psoriasis, this type leads to joint pain, stiffness, and swelling.
Arthritis can make even simple tasks like walking or gripping objects difficult, often worsening over time and impacting your ability to stay active.
