Managing Rheumatoid Arthritis with Physiotherapy
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic form of arthritis in which the immune system attacks the joints causing pain, swelling, and stiffness. Unlike osteoarthritis, which is caused by wear and tear, RA is an autoimmune condition that can affect multiple joints and even organs.
At Physioveda Dubai, we provide personalized treatment plans that complement medical care. While doctors may prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs or disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) to control inflammation, our physical therapy approach helps protect the joints, maintain mobility, and support daily function


Understanding Arthritis & Treatment Options
Arthritis is a broad condition with many types. Common forms include:
- Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis – The most common types affecting joint cartilage and immune response.
- Psoriatic Arthritis – A type of arthritis linked with psoriasis that can cause joint pain and stiffness.
Because arthritis involves long-term joint health, treatment often combines medical and supportive approaches:
- Medications – such as anti-inflammatory drugs and DMARDs to reduce pain and slow disease progression.
- Physiotherapy – exercise-based care to preserve mobility, strength, and posture.
- Joint protection strategies – techniques to reduce strain and prevent flare-ups.
- Joint replacement surgery – considered in advanced cases where damage is severe.
