It’s a vicious cycle: the chronic pain of arthritis heightens levels of stress and anxiety, which in turn can actually worsen arthritis pain. Without taking deliberate steps to break the cycle and restore a sense of calm and wellbeing, arthritic symptoms can continue to exacerbate, along with a host of other physical ailments.
Compassionate Nursing Services helps seniors with arthritis, and other conditions of aging, to improve quality of life through hands-on assistance with care as well as encouragement to engage in enjoyable activities, including those to help relax and reduce stress. Some of our top recommendations include:
Compassionate Nursing Services, Town and Country memory care providers serving the surrounding areas, is on hand to help older adults reduce stress and anxiety, better manage chronic conditions such as arthritis, and enjoy a higher quality of life.
