Let's say you have osteoarthritis - perhaps the most common disorder of locomotors system. It is often treated with a surgical operation to clean out debris in the joint, using a tiny scope inserted straight into the knee. However more and more researches point out fact that the surgery works, but no better than other treatments. Dr. Kalousek is a rheumatologist from Spa-resorts. cz says - surgery doesn't stop the arthritic process.

Interestingly American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) encourages patients to think about physical therapy as an alternative non-surgical option for osteoarthritis treatment.

Doctor Kalousek confidences that beside therapeutic spa treatments everyone can protect own joints from osteoarthritis or for sure slow its progression simply by following suggestions:

-Lose weight. Just remember that every pound lost reduces the load exerted on the knee for each step by four kilogram.

-Get active. Exercise strengthens the muscles around joints, which can prevent cartilage from wearing down.

-Stay straight. Good posture protects the neck, back, hip and knee joints.

-Don't stay immobile when sitting. Changing positions can reduce joint and muscle stiffness.

-Lift cautiously. Use your strongest & biggest joints and muscles when carrying & lifting to avoid straining smaller joints.

-Take a rest. Rest between periods of heavy activity to prevent repetitive stress on joints that can accelerate wear and tear.

In other words therapeutic treatment is a good option of surgical operation in many cases!
