Arthritis Exercise

Arthritis is the number one cause of disability in people age thirty-five and over. Many who are diagnosed with this condition find it hard to move and carry out everyday activities. The best thing for people to do who suffer from this condition is to exercise their joints. A sub committee of the Williamson County Healthy Community Coalition assembled a diverse group of seniors to help demonstrate a routine everybody can do on a daily basis.

People with arthritis can quickly re gain mobility in their neck, shoulders, arms and legs in ways that are crucial for everyday living.
