More “Joint-Soothing” Exercise
If your sore joints are getting you down and limiting your ability to exercise or even perform simple activities of daily living, then some “low-key” martial arts may be your answer. A recently published study in Arthritis Care & Research found that Tai Chi was effective in reducing
knee osteoarthritis in a group of elderly participants. Compared to a control group, the study group, who participated in one-hour classes two times a week for three months, reported a significant decrease in knee pain at the end of the study period. So delay that knee replacement surgery and go Tai Chi!
