Living with arthritis
Movement is part of the treatment.
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and often affects the knees, hips, hands and spine. Inflammatory types, such as rheumatoid arthritis, involve the immune system and are managed together with your physician.
Joints were built to move. Regular, well-chosen exercise is one of the most effective treatments for arthritis pain and stiffness, and it helps protect function over the long term.
Osteoarthritis
Joint stiffness, especially in the morning or after rest, aching with activity, swelling and reduced range of motion.
Inflammatory arthritis
Rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis benefit from tailored exercise alongside medical care.
Your goals
Walking further, gardening, managing stairs or putting off joint replacement: we plan around what matters to you.
How we help
Less pain, more confidence.
- Assessment of joint mobility, strength, balance and walking
- Progressive strengthening to support painful joints
- Manual therapy to reduce stiffness
- Pacing strategies and flare-up management
- Advice on footwear, aids and Footmax orthotics
- Pre-operative strengthening before joint replacement
What to expect
Practical support for everyday life.
We teach you how to tell the difference between normal exercise discomfort and pain that means you should ease off, so you can stay active with confidence.
Many people notice improvement within 6 to 8 weeks of consistent exercise. We set up a routine you can continue independently.
Common questions
Good to know.
Will exercise wear out my joints faster?
No. Appropriate exercise strengthens the muscles around joints and is linked with less pain and better function.
Can physio help before a joint replacement?
Yes. Building strength beforehand often makes recovery after surgery smoother.
Do I need a doctor’s referral?
No. You can book directly with our physiotherapist. Some extended health plans ask for a referral before they reimburse, so it is worth checking your policy.
Can I be seen at home?
Yes. If travelling to the clinic is difficult, we offer in-home physiotherapy across Spruce Grove and the surrounding area, as well as virtual visits.
