Arthritis
There are many different types of arthritis, the most common being Osteoarthritis. Book your Physiotherapy appointment for a clear assessment and diagnosis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the type of arthritis that most people think of when they hear 'arthritis'. It is an age related condition that will affect all of us at different rates depending on a number of factors. OA is where the health of our cartilage and bones in our joints degenerate over time.
​
All joints can suffer from OA, the most common being:
-
Knees
-
Hips
-
Shoulders
-
Fingers
​
Arthritis is often treated by joint replacements. But physiotherapy is a great way to significantly slow the progression of this condition, hopefully enough to avoid needing invasive surgery!
​
Our expert physiotherapy assessment and treatment includes:
-
Thorough assessment to ensure an accurate diagnosis of your joint pain
-
Hands on treatment and self-management advice to alleviating pain and restoring optimal function to your joint
