Are you amongst the millions of people worldwide suffering from arthritis pain? According to the Arthritis Foundation, over 54 million adults and 300,000 children in the United States alone have been diagnosed with arthritis. This debilitating condition, often experienced as chronic joint pain, stiffness, and inflammation, can severely impact your quality of life.

Arthritis pain is not age-specific; it can affect people of all ages in New Jersey, with the majority being adults aged 65 and older. Its progression varies across individuals – some may experience mild symptoms while others endure severe, constant pain. The one commonality is its persistence – arthritis is a long-term condition, but it doesn’t mean you have to live with pain.

At Bens Total Wellness Therapy, we understand how essential it is to maintain an active lifestyle, even in the face of arthritis. And that’s where physical therapy comes in. As a proven, highly effective approach to pain management, physical therapy offers numerous benefits for those battling arthritis.

Our physical therapists will use techniques to help decrease pain by restoring joint movement and improving strength. A regular, customized exercise regimen helps to enhance overall mobility and independence.

Early intervention with physical therapy can prevent the progression of arthritis and reduce the risk of disability. We empower you with self-management strategies, including pain management techniques and home exercise programs, so you can effectively control arthritis pain and maintain function in the long term.

Understanding the Most Common Types and Causes of Arthritis

Arthritis is not a singular condition but rather an umbrella term used to describe over 100 different diseases, all characterized by inflammation in the joints causing pain and stiffness. At Bens Total Wellness Therapy servicing the areas of New Jersey, we often encounter several types of arthritis that benefit greatly from physical therapy, including:

  • Osteoarthritis (OA): As the most common form of arthritis, OA affects millions of people worldwide. This degenerative disease is caused by the gradual wearing down of cartilage in the joints, often due to age or overuse. OA can lead to pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): This is an autoimmune disease where the body’s immune system attacks the joint tissues, causing inflammation, pain, and swelling. The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) highlights the benefits of physical therapy in managing RA symptoms and improving joint health.
  • Gout: This type of arthritis is caused by the accumulation of urate crystals in the joint, resulting in intense pain and swelling. It often affects the big toe but can occur in any joint. Physical therapy can help alleviate acute gout symptoms and prevent future attacks.
  • Psoriatic Arthritis: This condition leads to joint pain, stiffness, and swelling. Regular physical therapy can help manage these symptoms, ensuring a better quality of life.
  • Ankylosing Spondylitis: This is a type of inflammatory arthritis that primarily affects the spine. Stiffness and discomfort can gradually lead to a hunched-forward posture. With the right physical therapy regimen, patients can maintain spine flexibility and manage pain effectively.

At Bens Total Wellness Therapy, we can significantly improve outcomes for arthritis patients, reducing disability and improving quality of life. Our dedicated team is ready to guide you through a personalized physical therapy program to manage your arthritis and reclaim your active lifestyle.

Battling arthritis pain? In the heart of New Jersey, a solution awaits you! By harnessing the scientifically-backed power of physical therapy, you can unlock the path to a pain-free, more active lifestyle.

The journey toward arthritis pain relief begins with a comprehensive evaluation by our highly skilled physical therapists. They gather an extensive medical history to fully understand your health profile, symptoms, and the progression of your arthritis—a clear snapshot of your health past and present aids in shaping the optimal treatment plan for you.

Our therapists then conduct a hands-on assessment of your affected joints and soft tissues, assessing pain levels, areas of tension, restrictions, and inflammation. This hands-on approach provides critical insights into the nature and extent of your arthritis.

Next, we’ll gauge your ability to move and evaluate your muscle strength. In addition, our therapist will conduct functional testing, which involves assessing your ability to perform everyday tasks like walking, bending, or lifting objects. Our therapists can identify areas requiring particular attention and develop a personalized therapy plan that addresses these challenges.

Our treatment plans in New Jersey for arthritis pain commonly include:

  • Therapeutic Exercises: These exercises are tailored to improve joint flexibility, increase muscle strength, and enhance endurance.
  • Manual Therapy: Manual therapy techniques, such as joint mobilization and soft tissue massage, have proven effective in alleviating arthritis symptoms. They can reduce pain, increase range of motion, and improve joint function.
  • Education and Self-Management: Our therapists educate you about your condition, empowering you with strategies and home exercises to manage your arthritis effectively in the long term.

Physical therapy isn’t just about managing symptoms – it’s about improving your overall function and enabling you to lead an active, fulfilling life, regardless of arthritis.
