I Have Arthritis In My Knee(s).  Will Physical Therapy Help?


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.
