Hello everyone,
How are you?
While many may worry that exercising with OA could harm the joints and cause more pain, research shows that people can and should exercise when they have osteoarthritis. In fact, exercise is considered the most effective, non-drug treatment for reducing pain and improving movement for OA patients!
So, how do you stay active with OA? What do you do for exercise? Are there any activities that you find more adapted for people with osteoarthritis? Have you noticed any improvements to your OA following your exercise?

Feel free to share your experiences and advice with us here in the comments!
Take care,
Courtney
