Arthritis Exercise

There are many different types of arthritis and hence many different forms of exercises may be beneficial to you. If you have back pain swimming is a great form of exercise. Back pain also responds to exercise with a qualified phyiotherapist. People who are overweight and have multiple painful joints, especially due to osteoarthritis, benefit from aqua aerobics. We have recently found a specially designed and structured yoga program to be extremely useful for patients with Rheumatoid arthritis. In Dubai and soon in Abu Dhabi, all of these forms of exercise programs have been given to patients free of charge through the Emirates Arthritis Foundation.
