Rheumatoid Arthritis is an auto-immune inflammatory arthritis that if it is not treated it can slowly destroy the joints of the shoulders, elbows, wrists, fingers, knees, ankles and feet.
Medication and anti-inflammatory diet are the most important methods to stop the disease and avoid joint destruction.
Exercises are used in conjunction with medications to preserve the function of the joints, to avoid disability, to improve morning stiffness and to reduce pain.

OMGOODNESS!!! Once again you’re teaching us something that NO one else has!!! I have RA and I must say that a part of me is infuriated at the thought of not being given this information years ago!! On the other hand, I’m so grateful that YOU are informing/educating us!
I truly appreciate how thoroughly you cover the information you give us! Unfortunately, I already have some deformed joints that limit my ability to do some of these well. But I’m so glad to have this info. Abundant Blessings...

Thank you Dr. Furlan for your very clear demonstration of exercise of the hands and fingers of RA. Although I do not have RA, I think this is helpful to maintain healthy hands and fingers also.

Your videos are excellent because you go direct to subject and you do not stay speaking half tame of the video about anything. Your instructions are very simple and clear. We know that you are a person and a doctor that we can trust. Thank you very much for these sharing. I wish you too much success in all things you want (sorry my English).

I so appreciate your videos. ❤️ You are not only charming ☺️ but also very informative. I’m a 70 yo classical pianist and was diagnosed last year with the beginnings of RA in my hands and toes. I will be *sure* to put these exercises to work and will watch other videos of yours that deal with this topic. Many thanks!
