The e-book is available to download and contains expert tips, strategies, and support to help those with arthritis better manage pain and live a more active lifestyle.
For 75 years, The Arthritis Foundation has been the go-to resource for information on arthritis. Across the nation, nearly 60 million adults and hundreds of thousands of children live with pain caused by arthritis, which can interfere with everyday activities like chores, exercise, and more.
'Educating people about pain from arthritis and how to manage it has long been a core component of our work,' says Steven Taylor, Arthritis Foundation CEO.

We hope these techniques help arthritis patients return to the activities that bring them joy.'
