Session 2: Cartilage, Joints, and Posture
This session focuses on the role of cartilage in joint health and how cartilage changes affect Osteoarthritis symptoms. Participants will learn what happens when cartilage becomes damaged or worn down, and whether “missing cartilage” automatically means more pain. Alan will also explain strategies to help support joint health, including the importance of standing posture, balance, and alignment in managing Osteoarthritis.
This is Session 2 of 6 in our free Osteoarthritis Education Series. Sign up for all six classes to gain practical tools and knowledge to better manage Osteoarthritis.
