Keeping Mobile: Physical Therapy & RA


This week, I interviews an physiotherapist about exercise, pain control and RA:
"Staying fit and flexible is a good idea for everyone, but is particularly important when you live with rheumatoid arthritis.

Physical therapy can be a useful tool in developing an exercise program that protects your joints, as well as helping you to manage pain. To find out more about how this kind of therapy can help people who have RA, I interviewed Danielle McCormick, a physical therapist with The Arthritis Society of Canada."
