Physical Therapy for Arthritis
Arthritis Relief
Move Better, Hurt Less, Stay Independent
Arthritis can make the simplest tasks — getting out of a chair, tying your shoes, walking up stairs — feel like a challenge. The stiffness, the soreness, the swelling… it adds up. And for many older adults, it becomes a reason to stop moving altogether.
But here’s the thing: movement is medicine. And the right kind of movement doesn’t just ease arthritis pain — it can protect your joints, build strength, and improve your quality of life.
At Hyphen, we help older adults with arthritis find their strength again. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy understand how to reduce joint pain without overdoing it — and how to build a plan that makes you feel more capable with every session.
Your program may include:
Low-impact strength training for joint support
Mobility work to reduce stiffness
Balance and coordination exercises
Manual therapy or dry needling for pain relief
Joint protection education and pacing strategies
Things we treat
Osteoarthritis in the knees, hips, spine, or hands
Rheumatoid arthritis (with medical clearance)
Joint pain and stiffness
Swelling and inflammation with activity
Weakness around affected joints
Limited range of motion
Fear of movement or worsening pain
Mobility loss due to joint discomfort
Post-surgical arthritis management
