Evidence-based care that reduces pain, improves function, and restores confidence in movement.
At Physiotherapy Active, we deliver the GLA:D Australia program for people living with hip and knee osteoarthritis (OA).
GLA:D® (Good Life with osteoArthritis: Denmark) is a globally recognised, research-driven physiotherapy program designed to help people move better, feel stronger, and regain control over their symptoms—without relying solely on medication, injections, or surgery.
What makes the GLA:D® program different?
GLA:D® is not a generic exercise class. It is a standardised clinical program, designed by researchers and clinicians, and delivered by physiotherapists trained specifically in OA management.
The program focuses on:
- Improving muscle strength around the hip and knee
- Enhancing joint control and movement efficiency
- Reducing pain sensitivity through graded loading
- Building confidence to move without fear
Rather than “pushing through pain,” GLA:D® teaches how to load joints safely and progressively, even when pain is present.
