Recent studies have shown that individuals who received physical therapy for the treatment of knee arthritis in the form of manual therapy (joint mobility performed by a physical therapist) combined with therapeutic exercise to enhance joint range of motion and muscular strength felt a decrease in symptoms that lasted for up to one year. This decrease in symptoms allowed the individuals to delay receiving a total knee replacement for that year. Physical therapy combined with proper nutrition, nutritional supplements and weight loss can prevent a total knee replacement for even longer.
