Arthritis Foundation Jingle Bell Run December 3, 2017. The clinic, clients and families raised over $1,000 to support research for arthritis which includes osteoarthritis, rheumatoid, juvenile, etc. We had a blast running and walking the 5K course and had some first place running winners in their age groups: a shout out to Michael Gomer, Carissa Chase and Jake Barber!

Benefits of Water Therapy Aquatic therapy is a highly effective form of physical therapy that encompasses the whole body, not just one injured area. For some patients, traditional land exercises are too painful, often because of a recent injury or surgery. For others, chronic conditions like fibromyalgia and arthritis have difficulty with traditional physical therapy.
