Introduction to Arthritis

Physical Therapy in Charlottesville for Arthritis

Welcome to the PT@acac’s resource about arthritis.

Arthritis is one condition that can be incredibly debilitating to a sufferer of this disease.  Arthritis can cause pain, inflammation, stiffness, limitation of movement, and can keep you from fully enjoying your life.

However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

This section of our site is designed with you, the Arthritis sufferer in mind.  We want to be a resource for you, to provide you with the information and assistance you need in order to take control of your condition and let Arthritis know just who exactly is the boss.

There is no reason you shouldn't be able to do all of the activities that you love to do, whether it is dance, play a sport, lift your children or your grandchildren, or simply sit at the computer and update your Facebook status.  

Arthritis doesn't have to kill your fun and if you work with us, we won't let it.

“ I have found the physical therapy treatments at ACAC to be extremely helpful. The therapist takes a deep interest in my progress and has succeeded in improving my condition markedly despite my having arthritis. i would recommend Physical Therapy at ACAC to anyone looking for a physical therapist. And their connection to a gym (and the warm water pool at the downtown facility) make it so the therapist can prescribe things you can do on your own when their therapy finishes. ”

“ I wanted to share a positive experience with you in hope that Sam receives the recognition that he very much deserves. My ten year old daughter has been working with Sam for a few months for physical therapy in the Waynesboro location. We have been very impressed with Sam and are so thankful for his care and attention toward my daughter. Every week he seems to have a new activity for her that is age appropriate and keeps her engaged. He is creative and knowledgeable and always seeks feedback from us and provides updates on her progress. As someone who works in a therapy setting, it is so refreshing to see his approach toward her and her individual therapy needs and we are so grateful for this. ”
