Why You Should Choose Physiotherapy to Treat Arthritis

June 15, 2021 By Jurgen Cowling

According to National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, over 54 million people suffer from arthritis in the United States alone. The severe joint pain condition is classified as a chronic illness like diabetes and heart disease as it’s impossible to control and can occur at any time.

One of the more common arthritis strains is osteoarthritis, which affects joints in your hands, knees, hips, and spine. But how can physiotherapy help your condition?

In this blog, we’ll help you understand symptoms of arthritis and how physiotherapy can be a game-changer when it comes to finding comfort.

What is arthritis?

As mentioned earlier, arthritis is a chronic pain condition that affects the joints in your wrists, hands, knees, and spine. It can hinder your performance and concentration as you’re constantly in pain and suffering.

You can suffer from this condition for many reasons, including weight gain, old age, stress on joints, injuries, and genetics. The wear and tear happen as your hyaline or cartilage that cushions the joints starts to deteriorate and cause friction, leading to pain.

As your condition gets severe, you’ll notice your joints hurting after a lot of movement. Stiffness, lumps, and swelling around the affected areas are also common symptoms to look out for.

What is physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is a necessary treatment for most arthritis patients. It’s provided by physiotherapists or qualified physical therapists who guide you through the issue and help maintain an active and healthy independent life.

They assess your movements and demonstrate ways to protect your joints leading to minimal damage to your cartilage. Your physical therapist will address all your queries and concerns and devise a treatment plan with activities and exercises to help alleviate pain and help your condition as best as they can.

How can physiotherapy help?

A physiotherapist will provide knowledge and insights on your condition and help you learn how to manage pain and operate your limbs with minimal friction.

If over-exercising or overdoing any activity is the cause of your ailment, they’ll help you find alternatives to find a balance between healthy activities and proper resting. Overworking your joints when you’re in pain will only make the situation worse so, letting a professional handle your condition is your best option.

In addition to personalized activity and exercise plans, your physiotherapist will utlize treatments and techniques to reduce your soreness and even eliminate the issue. Techniques like electrotherapy, ultrasound, and low-level laser therapy will stimulate the healing and recovery process.
