Dr. John Wade, MD, FRCP(C), Rheumatologist, Vancouver BC Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment Options

Rheumatoid arthritis is a common type of arthritis. It occurs in about one percent of the general population, and is more common in women than men—about three to one. It often presents with pain, swelling, and stiffness in small joints, typically in the hands and feet, but can continue to involve larger joints, such as the ankles, elbows, wrists, or knees.
Isometric exercise is a beneficial and low-impact option for people with arthritis because it strengthens muscles without moving the joints, which can reduce pain and aggravation

By contracting muscles and holding positions without joint motion, these exercises build strength, improve joint stability, and can even have a pain-relieving effect. Examples include holding a squat, pressing palms together, or doing a abdominal contraction
