Rheumatoid Arthritis Physiotherapy

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune condition that causes inflammation in the joints, leading to pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility. It commonly affects the hands, wrists, knees, and feet, making everyday activities such as walking, gripping objects, or climbing stairs difficult. If left unmanaged, RA can gradually affect joint function and overall quality of life.

Physiotherapy plays an important role in managing Rheumatoid Arthritis by helping reduce pain, improve joint mobility, and maintain muscle strength. Through gentle exercises, stretching, posture correction, and joint protection techniques, physiotherapy helps patients stay active, improve functional independence, and manage symptoms more effectively.
