Welcome to the August newsletter from Willow Grove Physical Therapy.

 
  NEW JULY ARTICLE  
 

Congrats to Mildred Chesney on turning 100!

"I was born on December 28, 1915 in Bay Shore Long Island. I have been exercising for the past 35 years and feel that exercise has kept me fit and in good health." Mildred takes the Willow Grove Senior Fitness class 2 times per week in addition to another class. She also takes the water aerobics class provided by Willow Grove PT. "For mental stimulus I do cryptograms, crossword puzzles and play scrabble. I also spend part of my day playing bridge, canasta, hand & foot mah jong, and dominoes. Also, a great deal of reading. My volunteer work is "cook for a friend" once a month and right now I am teaching a group of ladies how to play canasta."

 

Welcome to Shiloh and Hilary our new doctoral interns from Arcadia University and Erica from Maryland University!

Understanding Spondyloarthropathies

Spondyloarthropathies refer to rheumatological diseases that affect the spine, including ankylosing spondylitis (AS), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), reactive arthritis (ReA), enteropathic arthritis (EA), and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). 

Pain and stiffness are the most common symptoms of rheumatological diseases, with the sacroiliac joints, hips, knuckles, and shoulders being most commonly affected.

There is no cure for spondyloarthropathies; treatment is focused on pain management and slowing down progression of the disease process.
