WHAT IS THE BEST TREATMENT FOR OSTEOARTHRITIS?

 

Arthritis is the inflammation and stiffness of joints. Though there are over 100 types of arthritis, common symptoms include a dull ache or burning sensation, swelling, and stiffness.

The most common form of arthritis is Osteoarthritis, which affects the entire joint, including the bone, cartilage, ligaments, and muscles. The knees, hips, wrists, fingers, and big toe are frequently affected.

Bauerfeind's high-quality supports and braces with medical-grade compression target the symptoms of Osteoarthritis and provide relief and stability.

Bauerfeind's GenuTrain® A3 knee brace is designed for degenerative knee pain, such as Osteoarthritis. "A3" stands for Anti, Arthrosis, Algos, which means "against joint pain" in Latin.

Take a look at Marie Rose, who performed at Sydney's St Mary's Cathedral with her choir (pictured behind).

She is wearing the GenuTrain A3 for her arthritis knee pain. The fabric's three-dimensional active knit provides neuromuscular joint stabilisation.

HOW TO TREAT PAIN CAUSED BY OSTEOARTHRITIS

  • Physical activity. Studies show that gentle exercise, such as walking, can help reduce pain. Strengthening exercises build muscles around OA-affected joints, easing the burden on those joints and reducing pain.

  • Weight management. Excess weight causes additional stress to weight-bearing joints, such as the hips, knees, feet and back. Losing weight can help people with Osteoarthritis reduce pain and limit further joint damage.

  • Stretching. Lessen stiffness and reduce pain through stretching exercises such as yoga and tai chi.

  • Support and brace. A Bauerfeind brace offers enhanced stability, proprioception and medical-grade compression, which targets specific joints and relieves pain.

Play it safe: Consult a doctor if you experience unusually intense and persistent knee arthritis.
