Exercise and Arthritis

According to Loyola University Health System, March 28, 2011......it is estimated that 50 million adults in the U.S. suffer from arthritis. One of the best ways to combat the onset of arthritis as well as control the pain and improve function is through EXERCISE.

Benefits of exercise for arthritis sufferers include:
1. Preserving and restoring range of motion and flexibility around each affected joint
2. Increasing muscle strength and endurance to enhance joint stability.
3. Increasing aerobic conditioning to improve psychological state and decrease risks of disease.

It works....I have arthritis and exercise is a God-send for me as well.
