GLA:D program - Box Hill

GLA:D, from ‘Good Life with osteoarthritis in Denmark’, is an education and exercise program developed by researchers in Denmark for people with hip or knee osteoarthritis. The group runs for 6 weeks, twice per week, with two education sessions during this period. This program is unique in that the education and exercises provided can be applied to everyday activities, ensuring participants develop skills to self-manage their osteoarthritis. By strengthening and improving confidence with exercise, participants develop better capacity to become or stay active, prevent symptoms worsening, and reduce pain.

Our Move Well exercise programs are run by exercise physiologists, physiotherapists and allied health assistants. You will need to have an assessment by an exercise physiologist or physiotherapist before starting one of our exercise programs.
