About

I’m Alyssa—a doctor of physical therapy and osteoarthritis specialist—and I’m here to show you that adventure is STILL possible with arthritis. Movement isn’t the enemy. The right movement can reduce pain, stiffness, and instability—and it can help you avoid surgery, endless medications, and injections. After years helping people recover from knee and hip replacements, I saw too many slip through the cracks of traditional healthcare. Not here. On this channel, you’ll get research-backed tips and real-world strategies to regain mobility, rebuild strength, and keep you moving toward the life you want. No more playing small—let’s make your arthritis adventures happen.

In this video you'll learn what to prioritize to get started on your journey to enjoying walking again.

She also shows how to easily incorporate it into your daily routine so it doesn't even feel like exercise! Without the right action steps, walking may continue to become more difficult. Walking is such a vital activity of everyday life so it's key to make sure it feels good to you.
