Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis

Jacobo physical therapy clinics treat a variety of conditions related to osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Here are some common ones:

Osteoarthritis Conditions:

  1. Knee Osteoarthritis: Degeneration of the knee joint cartilage, causing pain and stiffness.
  2. Hip Osteoarthritis: Wear and tear of the hip joint, leading to pain and reduced mobility.
  3. Hand Osteoarthritis: Degeneration of the joints in the fingers and hands, causing pain and difficulty with fine motor tasks.
  4. Spinal Osteoarthritis: Degeneration of the spinal joints, leading to back pain and stiffness.
  5. Shoulder Osteoarthritis: Wear and tear of the shoulder joint, causing pain and limited range of motion.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Conditions:

  1. Joint Inflammation: Chronic inflammation of the joints, leading to pain, swelling, and stiffness.
  2. Muscle Atrophy: Loss of muscle mass due to reduced activity and chronic inflammation.
  3. Decreased Flexibility: Reduced range of motion in the affected joints.
  4. Cardiovascular Endurance Issues: Reduced stamina and endurance due to chronic inflammation and reduced physical activity.

Physical therapy for these conditions often includes a combination of exercises, manual therapy, aquatic therapy, education on joint protection techniques, and modalities such as heat and cold therapy to manage pain and improve function
