YOU CAN RELIEVE YOUR NECK PAIN & HEADACHES Millions of Americans suffer through arthritis pain every day, taking Ibuprofen and stronger medication to numb the pain and address the ongoing inflammation. The definition of arthritis is joint inflammation, however the term has acquired a wider meaning. Arthritis is now used as a generic term for osteoarthritis and other conditions that affect joints. The pattern, severity and location of arthritis symptoms can vary depending on the specific form of the disease. Relieving Joint Pain Exercising is important to help reduce joint pain and stiffness. Light to moderate-intensity physical activity can actually prevent a decline in function, even restoring health. However, some people with arthritis may be reluctant to exercise because of joint pain after activity.
You can take various steps to relieve pain, such as heat and cold therapy, or pain relievers, making it easier for you to exercise and stay active. In addition to physical therapy, choose non–impact exercises such as bicycling, swimming or water exercise. Furthermore, research shows that even modest weight loss combined with exercise is more effective in decreasing pain and restoring function than either weight loss or exercise alone.

Typically, arthritic conditions are characterized by pain and stiffness in and around one or more joints. The symptoms can develop gradually or suddenly. Certain rheumatic conditions can also involve the immune system and various internal organs of the body. Physical therapy is an important part of the ongoing treatment for arthritis. Physical therapy strengthens, stretches and stabilizes muscles surrounding affected joints providing needed support.

Light at the end of the Tunnel!! “I came to PT 9 months after back surgery in severe pain. My muscles had withered without use, and my quality of life was greatly diminished. The experienced professionals at Boulet PT were immediately able to reduce my level of pain. I looked forward to coming to PT and began to see improvement under their care. It was hard work sometimes, but everyone here was upbeat, positive, and gave me the help I needed. I felt their enthusiasm really made a difference. I had a long way to go, but they assured me I could get back to a life of activity and purpose. Thank you doesn’t begin to cover the gratitude I owe to the caring, knowledgeable, and always fun-filled group at Boulet Physical Therapy.” -Shirley B.
