Arthritic Conditions

Arthritis can be painful and significantly affect your ability to do important everyday activities like walking around …… but it doesn’t have to! 

The evidence is quite clear: exercise is a ‘first line’ treatment for arthritis and together with education and where appropriate, weight control it can provide good pain relief and reduce or delay the need for surgery. 

Programs such as GLA:D show consistent improvements in pain levels and function with targeted core and lower limb strengthening for hip and knee arthritis. At SportsPhysioSA, we use GLA:D principals with exercises modified to individual requirements. 

Book an appointment with one of the SportsPhysioSA team to discuss your specific problem and goals so that we can tailor a program for you. 

Unfortunately, surgery is necessary in some situations, but we can help there as well, with our pre & post-surgery rehab programs. 

Not sure what to do?

Don’t stress about what you might read on Google, make an appointment to discuss your problem with one of the SportsPhysioSA physiotherapists. We can sort through what information is relevant to you.
