How Might Physical Therapy Help With Psoriatic Arthritis?
Psoriatic arthritis can cause pain and discomfort, but physical therapy can help you find relief.
With psoriatic arthritis (PsA), your immune system may attack your skin and joints. This can make it hard to workout, but exercise can actually help alleviate these symptoms. A physical therapist can help you find low-impact workouts that can not only boost your overall health, but also reduce joint pain.
PsA has also been linked to conditions like depression, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease. Consistent exercise can help keep these risks at bay and allow you to live the life you deserve.
