What is Osteoarthritis?
OA is a joint condition that occurs when the body experiences cumulative micro and macro injuries. This leads to harmful repair responses and inflammation. Initially, there are changes at the molecular level, such as abnormal joint tissue metabolism, followed by physical changes such as cartilage breakdown, changes in bone shape, bone spur formation, joint inflammation, and loss of normal joint function. It is common in individuals aged 65 and older, but can also affect individuals as young as 30 years old.
OA Treatment
The Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI) has developed guidelines for patient-centered treatment recommendations for those with knee, hip, and polyarticular OA, which are based on expert consensus and a thorough review of high quality meta analytic data. Structured land based exercise programs and dietary weight management are considered effective and safe first line treatment options for hip and knee OA.

Before joining our Hip & Knee Exercise Class, you’ll need an initial one-on-one appointment with one of our physiotherapists. This session includes a thorough assessment and baseline testing to personalise your program and ensure the best outcomes for your hip and knee health. You don’t need a referral from your doctor to book an appointment. However, in some cases, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate if your GP provides an appropriate referral under a care plan.

During our Hip & Knee Exercise Class, everyone completes the same core set of evidence-based exercises designed to improve joint strength, mobility and function. However, our experienced physiotherapists carefully tailor each exercise to suit your individual condition, needs and goals ensuring you get the most out of every session.

With private health insurance, you may be eligible for an on-the-spot rebate through HICAPS, making our Hip & Knee Exercise Classes far more affordable than personal training at a gym. We also work closely with Medicare, DVA, WorkCover and other funding providers to help make your treatment as accessible as possible.
On our blog we share regular updates on common symptoms, treatments and prevention that can help you reach your goals sooner.
