Allyn Bove, PT, DPT, & G. Kelley Fitzgerald, PT, PhD, FAPTA  |  July 12, 2016

The benefits of exercise therapy for individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA) are well known.

Running Barefoot May Protect Against Some Musculoskeletal Injuries

Lara C. Pullen, PhD  |  May 23, 2016

Running barefoot may conjure images of summer and childhood, but since Abebe Bikila of Ethiopia set a world record running barefoot in the marathon in the 1960 Olympic Games in Rome (Olympic gold medal in a world-record 2:15:16.2), many runners have adopted the style. A recent study found that running barefoot may be associated with significantly fewer overall musculoskeletal injuries than running shod…

Exercise Helps Manage Hip Osteoarthritis Pain

Kathryn Doyle  |  December 12, 2015

(Reuters Health)—Water- or land-based exercise should provide some short-term benefit in pain management for hip osteoarthritis, though there are few well-designed trials testing it, according to a new review. “It is nice to finally have some hip-specific data, as hip and knee osteoarthritis are often grouped together, and it’s almost certain that there are differences…

Knee Replacement Surgery Works, but So Can Nonsurgical Techniques

Gene Emery  |  October 23, 2015
