Wellness Embodied are delighted to be the first Cairns clinic to offer the GLA:D program for sufferers of hip and knee OA. The GLA:D program in Australia shows an average pain reduction of 36%, reduced analgesic consumption, reduction in perceived need for surgery, clinically meaningful improvement in joint confidence. We often see clients with OA who are confused about exercise and its benefits, as well as their condition, so we look forward to improving the quality of life of OA sufferers greatly.

An initial appointment is required to assess the clients eligibility for the program. The program will start on Tuesday 12th October at 4pm and run for 8 weeks, as well as Fridays at 12pm from 29th October.  The first 2 weeks consist of an education session per week which teach you about OA, about how the exercises improve joint stability and how to retain it outside of the program we run. The following 6 weeks consists of 2 sessions per week of group neuromuscular training to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life through muscle control of the joint. The full program is $620 which includes a 1:1 3 month follow up after completion or $50 per session.
