Symptoms of Joint Pain and Arthritis

Symptoms of joint pain and arthritis can vary in severity and presentation. Common indicators of osteoarthritis, which is the most common cause, include joint stiffness and loss of motion along with pain. There is also inflammatory arthritis which causes swelling, redness, and warmth around the affected joint. You may experience a limited range of motion, sharp or dull pain during movement, as well as a grating sensation.. Over time, decreased flexibility and mobility can significantly hinder your daily activities and overall quality of life.

Our Approach to Treatment

Our approach to treating joint pain and arthritis at The Osteopathic Clinic of Northern Colorado focuses on holistic osteopathic care that considers the whole person, not just the symptoms. Osteopathic treatments for joint pain and arthritis may include osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), soft tissue therapy, joint mobilization, and exercise prescription.

During your osteopathic treatment, you can expect a series of steps designed to assess, treat, and support your overall well-being.

The session usually begins with a detailed conversation between you and the osteopathic physician. This discussion allows us to understand your joint pain and arthritis symptoms, concerns, medical history, and treatment preferences. By actively listening to your needs, we can tailor the treatment plan to meet your individual health goals.

Following the initial conversation, our osteopathic physician will conduct a thorough physical examination to assess your musculoskeletal health and identify areas of dysfunction. This examination may involve observing your posture, range of motion, and areas of pain or discomfort. Through hands-on palpation and evaluation, our physician will pinpoint areas that require attention and treatment for your joint pain and arthritis.

Based on the findings from the examination and your specific health needs, our osteopathic physician, Dr. Brianna Anthony, will develop a personalized treatment plan for you. This plan may include osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), soft tissue therapy, joint mobilization, and exercise prescription, among other modalities.
