Diet, Rest and Exercise, How to Control Pain.
Arthritis affects many Australians and is the leading cause of chronic pain and disability. Not only can it cause pain and loss of function in the joints, but it can also have a significant impact on work, the ability to enjoy social activities, as well as relationships with family and friends.
This book brings the latest information on the different types of arthritis and what you can do to help yourself. The good news is that people who are more informed about their arthritis and who follow self-help/self-management plans have reduced pain, improved function and a better quality of life.
Respected author Kerry Cook includes practical, down-to-earth information on osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, ankylosing spondylitis and other forms of arthritis, as well as the good news on the positive effects of diet, rest, exercise and pain-easing strategies as well.
