Arthritis is an umbrella term used to describe conditions affecting the joints and surrounding tissues. The two most common types are osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). OA tends to occur with aging or after a joint injury and predominantly affects the fingers, knees, and hips. On the other hand, RA is an autoimmune disorder that primarily targets the lining of the joints, leading to painful swelling, which can eventually result in joint deformity.
Other factors such as genetics, obesity, infections, or occupational hazards may also contribute to the onset or exacerbation of arthritis conditions.
Arthritis presents differently for everyone.

Treatment for arthritis at Ervin Physical Therapy begins with a thorough movement and history evaluation. This tells us far more about the source of your symptoms than imaging alone.
From there we build a targeted plan combining manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and patient education, designed around your specific findings, your daily demands, and your goals.
