Knee Osteoarthritis Treatment
Physical Therapy for Knee Osteoarthritis in Brooklyn
What is Knee Osteoarthritis?
Knee osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage cushioning your knee joint gradually wears down over time, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
While it's more common as we age, it's not an inevitable part of getting older—and it doesn't mean you're doomed to live with pain. Physical therapy has been proven to be one of the most effective treatments for knee arthritis, often delaying or eliminating the need for surgery.
Symptoms & Treatment
Common symptoms include: Knee pain that worsens with activity and improves with rest, stiffness especially in the morning or after sitting, swelling around the knee joint, and a grinding or clicking sensation with movement.
Our treatment approach: We focus on strengthening the muscles around your knee to provide better support, improving your range of motion, and teaching you pain management strategies. Exercise is medicine for arthritis—our goal is to keep you active and moving. Most patients notice improvement in pain and function within 4-6 weeks.
