Osteoarthritis is an extremely common condition affecting about 10% of Australians (2.5 million). Chronic pain caused by osteoarthritis can make it difficult for you to continue to do the activities you love, whether it be sports, socialising, walking, or shopping. This often results in inactivity due to the pain, which can result in further health complications or chronic conditions.
This can be avoided, however, as there has been lots of research to prove that Physiotherapy is the best thing you can do for osteoarthritis. Correct exercises and treatment techniques can have a huge impact in reducing pain and improving your living standards, even if you have been diagnosed with ‘bone on bone’. Even if you have been advised to have surgery on the affected joint, beginning Physiotherapy before the surgery will reduce your recovery time and your reliance on pain medication
