Summary

Knee osteoarthritis (OA) affects 27 million US adults and is a leading cause of pain and disability. Non-pharmacological interventions are recommended but are underutilized. Exercise reduces pain and improves physical function, but benefits tend to wane without a component to facilitate behavior change. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has long term benefits on pain and physical function in individuals with OA, but is not typically offered in clinical care. CBT could be taught in the context of clinical care by occupational therapists (OT). OTs help people manage chronic conditions by teaching behavioral strategies that promote health and function. The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and efficacy of an OT-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy program to help people manage their knee OA.

Within each module, there is downloadable homework and additional information which can be printed.
