Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a common degenerative joint condition that occurs when the protective cartilage cushioning the ends of bones gradually wears down over time. It most commonly affects the knees, hips, hands, and spine, causing pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced mobility. The condition can impact daily activities and overall quality of life if left untreated.
Physiotherapy is an effective, non-surgical approach to managing osteoarthritis symptoms. Through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and movement training, physiotherapists help reduce pain, improve joint flexibility, strengthen surrounding muscles, and enhance overall function. Early intervention can help slow progression and maintain independence in daily activities.
