Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that is characterized with signs and symptoms such as chronic pain, tenderness, crepitus, joint stiffness, limitation in range of motion, proprioceptive deficits, activity limitations, and disability. Proprioception can be defined as the perception of joint motion and position unconsciously or consciously. Proprioception maintains the development of motor control and reflex protection of joint against detrimental loading forces leading to cartilage abrasion. Proprioception accuracy is a modifiable problem in OA. Therapeutic approaches are shown to have evident improvements on proprioception.
