Arthritis rehabilitation sessions
Arthritis rehabilitation sessions typically occur once or twice a month for several months. Over time, these sessions may lessen in frequency. The goals and structure of these sessions will depend on your overall condition and desired area of improvement.
Sessions usually last around 1 hour and focus on hands-on therapeutic exercises and treatments to maximize time in the clinic. Many patients also have at-home exercises, stretches, and treatments designed to sustain and improve results. For example, a patient may learn how and when to apply hot or cold compresses at home.
In some cases, your physical therapist might recommend modifications to your environment at-home to ease symptoms and discomfort. This could include changing cabinet height, handle types, introducing step stools or assistive devices, or installing automatic door openers.
Arthritis can be a chronic concern, and it is recommended that patients return to their physical therapist every few months to check on symptom progress and add or adjust exercises and treatments into their plan. The goal is to prevent progression and reduce symptoms over time, and it is important to keep on top of the program for best results. Consistency is essential when treating arthritic symptoms.
