Osteoarthritis & Physical Therapy
**with evidence-based research referenced at the bottom 🧠**
Did you know that physical therapy can be a game-changer for knee osteoarthritis? Research shows that manual therapy, when combined with strengthening exercises, can significantly improve pain and function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
In fact, a systematic review and meta-analysis found that orthopaedic manual therapy can lead to improved outcomes, including reduced pain and improved functional ability, for individuals with knee osteoarthritis.
If you're living with knee osteoarthritis, consider talking to a physical therapist about how manual therapy and exercise can help you feel better and move more easily.
