Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative condition of the joints. Typically, OA presents with pain and decreased ROM and subsequently decreased strength. Patients many times feel “grinding,” “popping,” “catching/locking” and “clicking” in their joints. Physical therapy will not improve the state of your arthritic joint(s) but can have a great impact on preserving function. We will educate you on proper strengthening and stretching exercises to maintain the quality of the joint(s), as well as provide advice regarding ways to exercise comfortably.
