Typical Symptoms:
Common Causes:
Our arthritis program includes low-impact exercises, manual techniques to reduce stiffness, and movement strategies that protect affected joints. We also offer joint protection advice and home modifications. In the Palm Beach County area—serving Boynton Beach, Boca Raton, Lake Worth, and Wellington—our therapists take a multifaceted approach. Early sessions might include gentle range-of-motion work in a pool (aquatic therapy) to decrease stress on weight-bearing joints. Later, we add targeted strengthening to stabilize the joint and reduce discomfort in everyday tasks such as climbing stairs or getting out of a chair. We’ll also discuss how to adapt your home or workspace to minimize strain on arthritic joints, ensuring you remain active without aggravating symptoms.

Key Benefits:
Arthritis is chronic, but consistent therapy can slow progression and significantly improve quality of life. Many see benefits in just a few weeks, such as decreased stiffness and improved tolerance for walking or light activity. Long-term management often involves periodic check-ins, so we can fine-tune exercises and ensure your joints stay as healthy and pain-free as possible.
Can exercise worsen my arthritis?
When tailored properly, exercise is beneficial for arthritis, helping strengthen muscles and support joints.
Is aquatic therapy better for arthritis?
Yes. Water’s buoyancy reduces joint stress while allowing strength and mobility gains.
