Engage in gentle activities such as walking, swimming, or yoga to keep joints flexible, strengthen surrounding muscles, and reduce stiffness. Avoid high-impact activities that may worsen joint damage.

Stay Active with Low-Impact Exercises

Managing your weight reduces stress on weight-bearing joints like the knees and hips, easing pain and slowing the progression of osteoarthritis.

Maintain a Healthy Weight

Apply heat to relax stiff joints and muscles, or use ice packs to reduce swelling and inflammation after physical activity.

Use Heat and Cold Therapy

Work closely with your physical therapist to perform exercises that improve joint strength, stability, and range of motion, tailored to your specific condition.
