  • Go for a walk (but maintain social distancing)! Low-impact exercise most often helps arthritic pain. It may seem counterintuitive, but it lubricates the bones with natural synovial fluid and allows easier glide within the joint space.

  • Call OPI. We are still open and would be happy to take care of you. We are now offering virtual appointments.
