Living with knee osteoarthritis doesn't mean having to give up on an active, fulfilling life. Recent research features three proven strategies to help you regain comfort, mobility, and joy in movement.

MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE

Good news for knee osteoarthritis patients: staying active is key to preserving joint health and mobility! An insightful cross-sectional study revealed that osteoarthritis patients who stay active experience better symptom control and improved outcomes. (1) The secret is finding your sweet spot—enough activity to keep your joints healthy and strong without overdoing it. Your chiropractor at OrthoIllinois Chiropractic is your partner in designing an enjoyable, personalized exercise program that fits seamlessly into your life and honors your body's needs.

NATURE'S ANTI-INFLAMMATORY POWERHOUSE

Supplements containing green-lipped mussel also known as perna canaliculus offer support for lowering inflammation and discomfort. A six-month randomized controlled trial explored its positive effects for knee osteoarthritis sufferers. (2) The outcomes were encouraging: participants reported meaningful improvements in physical performance and decreases in pain. Better function, fewer symptoms, and greater daily comfort—this type of supplement could be your ally in feeling better every day. Let’s talk more about this at your next appointment.
