Working in partnership with Cross Works Physiotherapy, GLA:D is an education and exercise program for people with symptoms of hip or knee osteoarthritis. Taught by certified therapists, participants learn how to control movements and develop proper posture with exercises designed for building muscular strength.
Launched in Denmark in 2013, in its first four years, 30,000 participants had a reduction in pain and improved function and enjoyed a higher quality of life. This program starts with an initial 30-minute assessment, followed by two education sessions, then 12 exercise sessions, two per week, for six weeks.
