Exercise is Medicine Online Module: Osteoarthritis & Low Back Pain

Osteoarthritis (OA) and low back pain are among the most common musculoskeletal conditions, causing years of disability. Unfortunately, individuals with these disorders often become sedentary to avoid pain, inadvertently worsening their existing condition and becoming more susceptible to inactivity-related diseases.

This module, from the Exercise is Medicine® (EIM) Online Course, will help healthcare providers effectively aid clients/patients with osteoarthritis and/or low back pain.

The module also includes demonstration videos covering strength, flexibility and balance exercises for those with OA and a helpful PDF document of the information presented.
