Chinese exercise called Tai Chi may be beneficial for the treatment of arthritis, according to a new analysis.
The analysis demonstrated that Tai Chi could decrease pain, and improve overall physical health, level of tension and satisfaction with health status.
Already, exercise therapy-such as strengthening, stretching and aerobic programs-have been shown to be effective for arthritic pain.
Tai Chi is a form of exercise that is regularly practiced in China to improve overall health and well-being. It is usually preformed in a group, but is also practiced individually at one's leisure, which differs from traditional exercise therapy approaches used in the clinic.
The recent study examined the effectiveness of Tai Chi in decreasing pain and disability and improving physical function and quality of life in people with chronic musculoskeletal pain.
