GLA:D

GLA:D Program for Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis

GLA:D® is an evidence-based exercise program especially designed for hip and knee osteoarthritis.

It consists of both education and exercise components. GLA:D® was developed by researchers in Denmark and has been successfully taken to Canada, China and is currently been implemented in Australia.

GLA:D® has been shown to result in reduction of pain, improvement in quality of life, reduced use of pain killers and a reduction in sick leave for people with hip and knee osteoarthritis. GLA:D® participants also reported high levels of satisfaction with the program and increased levels of physical activity 12 months after starting the program.

This program is unique in that the education and exercises provided can be applied to everyday activities.

Sports Lab is proud to be one of the largest providers of the GLA:D® program in New South Wales, with some of Australia's leading physiotherapists committed to quality patient outcomes.
