Summary

Orthotics and Prosthetics are important areas where physiotherapists order a variety of assistive aids to restore, compensate, or prevent physical ailments and disorders, such as here, Knee Osteoarthritis.

This study will be helpful not only in establishing the role of footwear modification as an adjunct treatment protocol for knee osteoarthritis but also elicit a multidisciplinary team approach which is a much-needed area, especially in the emergency rehabilitation area.

osteoarthritis management

The conventional physical therapy will be consisted of an array of protocols being deployed in parallel. This will consist of * Patient education regarding deforming forces, strategies of prevention and home exercise program * Decreasing stiffness by controlled active range of motion and mobilization techniques involving join play. * Mechanical stresses will be controlled in form of support provided by foot wear modification * Range of motion will be increased muscle stretches and manual mobilization techniques * Muscle performance and neuromuscular control will be addressed by gentle exercises of low intensity and repetitive exercises. * Balance improvement by employing balance training activities as part of treatment * Physical conditioning low impact or non-impact aerobics This conventional exercise will be given as baseline treatment to both of groups.
