At Whittlesea Physiotherapy and Clinical Pilates we are experienced in hip and knee osteoarthritis treatment.
We are passionate about helping people who are struggling with pain that interferes with their walking, ability to use stairs, being able to sleep at night, getting out of their chair, putting on their shoes and socks, looking after their grandkids and being limited with their choices because of their hip or knee. We can help achieve a lifestyle that allows you to participate in your desired social activities, look after grandchildren and move without limitation. Do you want the freedom to choose what you want to do without your hip or knee holding you back? We have the knowledge, experience and commitment to help everyone reach their full potential in health, fitness and wellbeing. We do this using the worldwide proven GLA:D™ exercise and education Program for best practice management of hip and knee osteoarthritis.
Did you know GLA:D™ Australia is a program for all individuals who experience any hip and/or knee osteoarthritis symptoms, regardless of severity? This program is unique in that the education and exercises provided can be applied to everyday activities. By strengthening and correcting daily movement patterns, participants will train their bodies to move properly, prevent symptom progression and reduce pain.
Research from the GLA:D® program in Denmark found symptom progression reduces by 32%. Other outcomes include less pain, reduced use of joint related pain killers, and less people on sick leave. GLA:D® participants also reported high levels of satisfaction with the program and increased levels of physical activity 12 months after starting the program.
