Exercise is an essential part of therapeutic approach for arthritis. Pain and stiffness of the joints tend to discourage patients from exercising, however without exercise, joints can become even more stiff and painful. This happens because exercise actually keeps bones, muscles and joints healthy. If people do not exercise, their muscles become weaker, and their bones become ostepporotic.
Exercise pumps blood and body fluid through to the muscles, tendons and the joints, which will facilitate healing.
