Osteoarthritis – More Than “Wear and Tear”
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint condition where cartilage breaks down, bone surfaces rub together, and surrounding muscles tighten. This can cause pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced mobility, most commonly in the knees, hips, hands, spine, and feet.
Advice and treatment from me can help manage your OA symptoms and maintain joint function using evidence-based, targeted treatments, often combined for the best outcomes:
👍🏽 Soft tissue mobilisations– improves soft tissue mobility and releases restrictions around the joint
🤲 Joint Mobilisations – restores movement and stimulates cartilage nutrition
💉 Dry Needling – relaxes overactive muscles and improves joint alignment
💆♂️ Sports Massage – eases muscle tension and reduces joint stress
🎯 Sports Taping – supports joints, reduces strain, and improves movement patterns
🏋️♀️ Strength & Mobility Rehab – stabilises joints, improves movement, and slows progression
Combining these treatments can maximise pain relief, improve mobility, and support long-term joint health.
If you’re noticing stiffness, pain, or reduced mobility, book an assessment with me and take control of your joint health today.
