Book an AssessmentRheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune inflammatory condition that can affect multiple joints and general health. Diagnosis and medicines are managed by a rheumatology or medical team; physiotherapy supports movement and function.
How physiotherapy may help
The physiotherapist can adjust mobility, strengthening and aerobic activity according to disease activity, pain, fatigue and joint status. During a flare, the plan may need to be gentler and coordinated with medical advice.
Common rehabilitation goals
- Maintain joint movement without excessive irritation
- Preserve muscle strength and general conditioning
- Use pacing for fatigue and daily tasks
- Support confidence with walking and activity
What happens at a home appointment?
The physiotherapist reviews relevant history, reports and precautions, then assesses movement and function as appropriate. The plan may include education, guided exercise, mobility practice and suitable hands-on care. Progress is reviewed rather than assumed.
