Are you living with Osteoarthritis pain?
Would you like to get back to doing more of what you enjoy?
St.LukesHealth has launched a pilot program offering eligible members living with hip or knee Osteoarthritis an alternative to joint replacement surgery.
The program is designed to prevent or delay surgery by helping you improve your condition through physiotherapy, exercise, strength development and education, in a highly tailored, safe, and supervised environment.
Importantly, it also aims to reduce your pain levels and improve your ability to undertake and enjoy everyday activities, providing a long-term self-management program.
The 14-week program is delivered by Kieser Australia – an allied health-led network of exercise scientists, physiologists, and physiotherapists – at its integrated physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and strength training centre in Hobart.
To get started please read on to see if you are eligible for participation in the program.
