What is osteoarthritis, causes and symptoms?

Osteoarthritis is a common joint disorder that causes pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. It can disrupt your daily life, especially when it affects your knees, hips, or hands. Fortunately, with the MotiMove app you can effectively relieve osteoarthritis symptoms and improve your joint health.

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition in which the cartilage in the joints wears down. This leads to pain, swelling, and stiffness, especially during movement. Osteoarthritis is more common with age, but younger people can also experience it due to overuse or injuries.

Symptoms of osteoarthritis

 The main symptoms are:

·         Joint pain, especially during movement.

·         Stiffness after rest, for example in the morning or after sitting for a long time.

·         Limited mobility, which makes daily activities more difficult.

Although osteoarthritis cannot be cured, symptoms can be effectively managed and progression can be slowed. Targeted exercises and movement are essential for this.

How does the MotiMove app help with osteoarthritis?

 The MotiMove app offers a program of exercises specifically aimed at relieving osteoarthritis symptoms. Movement and muscle strengthening play a crucial role in reducing pain, improving mobility, and maintaining joint function.

The app includes exercises that strengthen the muscles around your joints. Strong muscles reduce the load on the joints, thereby decreasing pain. The exercises also promote flexibility, which helps reduce stiffness and encourage smoother movements.

What can you expect from the MotiMove app?

·         Targeted exercises for osteoarthritis in knees, hips, hands, and other joints.

·         Strengthening of muscles around the joints to relieve the load.

·         Flexibility exercises to reduce stiffness.

·         24/7 access to the exercises, so you can always train, at home or on the go.
