Understanding the GLA:D Program

A Proven Method for Managing Osteoarthritis
This 7-week program combines group exercise sessions with educational workshops to provide an immersive, practical approach to managing osteoarthritis. The goal is to equip you with the knowledge and skills to reduce symptoms, lessen dependency on painkillers, and improve the overall quality of your life.
What Our GLA:D program offers
Our GLA:D program is centred on helping you regain control over your life. We focus on reducing osteoarthritis-related pain, enhancing physical function, and enabling a more active and fulfilling lifestyle.
Comprehensive Initial Assessment
We start with a thorough assessment to understand your condition and the severity of your symptoms. This allows us to personalize the GLA:D program to meet your unique needs.
Biomechanical Evaluation
To guide the exercise component of the program, we assess your mobility levels and overall function.
Educational Workshops
Our program includes comprehensive education about osteoarthritis, its implications, and effective strategies for managing symptoms. We believe that knowledge is power, and arming you with the right information is crucial to managing your condition effectively.
Targeted Exercise Training
Over the 7-week program, we guide you through a range of exercises designed to enhance muscle control, reduce pain, and improve mobility.
