Osteoarthritis

Knee and joint pain don't have to shrink your life. Slow the wear, build the strength, keep moving.

What is Osteoarthritis?

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis — a gradual breakdown of joint cartilage with changes in the underlying bone, most often affecting knees, hips, hands and spine. Pain typically worsens with activity and eases with rest.

OA is not simply 'wear and tear' to be endured. Strengthening, weight optimization and activity modification reliably reduce pain and improve function — and can delay or avoid surgery for many people.

Common Symptoms

Joint pain that worsens with use
Stiffness after rest, easing within 30 minutes
Reduced range of motion
Grating or crackling sensation (crepitus)
Swelling around the joint after activity
Knee pain on stairs, squatting or standing up
Bony enlargement of finger joints
Pain disturbing sleep in later stages

Causes & Risk Factors

OA develops from cumulative mechanical load and biological changes in cartilage: age, previous joint injury, obesity (each extra kilogram multiplies force across the knee), muscle weakness, genetics and occupational strain. In women, prevalence rises sharply after menopause.

How The Cure Cabin Helps

Our approach is what international guidelines actually recommend first: structured strengthening, weight reduction (even 5% measurably reduces knee pain), activity you can sustain, pain-management strategy beyond daily painkillers, and honest guidance about injections and surgery when they are — and aren't — worth it.

Our Care Process

01

Understand You

A detailed consultation covering your history, reports, lifestyle and goals — not a 5-minute rush.

02

Map the Root Cause

We map your constitution, immune history, gut, diet and stress before prescribing — the drivers behind your condition, not just the symptom.

04

Follow-Up & Adjust

Regular reviews track your symptoms and lab markers, adjusting the plan until results hold.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is walking bad for arthritic knees?
No — appropriate movement nourishes cartilage and strengthens the muscles that protect joints. Inactivity accelerates decline. The dose and type of activity just need tailoring.
Do cartilage supplements work?
Evidence for glucosamine and similar supplements is weak and inconsistent. Strengthening and weight loss outperform every supplement studied — we're honest about that.
When is knee replacement necessary?
When pain and disability remain severe despite properly done conservative care. Many patients who commit to strengthening and weight loss postpone surgery for years or avoid it entirely.
