Steps to Arthritis Pain Management

Alleviating arthritis pain and increasing ability, strength and balance can be as easy as starting a walking program. While some fear that activities like walking may make arthritis conditions worse, a recent study proved that participants who walked for one hour, three times a week showed an estimated 20% improvement in their balance, range of motion, and relief from pain, stiffness and fatigue. The study also showed that the benefits continued as long as participants continued the program.

So overcoming pain can be a simple as taking the steps to conquer it – literally.
