Osteoarthritis: To Exercise or Not?
Osteoarthritis: To Exercise or Not?
If you live with arthritis, you’ve probably wondered whether exercise helps or hurts.
Should you rest sore joints? Should you keep moving? Can exercise make arthritis worse?
Led by our Exercise Physiologists, this evidence-based session will explore the role movement plays in managing osteoarthritis and maintaining independence as we age.
We’ll cover:
• What osteoarthritis actually is
• Common myths about arthritis and exercise
• Why pain doesn’t always mean damage
• Why avoiding movement can sometimes make symptoms worse
• The best types of exercise for painful joints
• Practical ways to stay active safely
