Volunteers needed for knee osteoarthritis exercise study

Help Barry University study exercises for osteoarthritis symptoms by taking part in a home-based study.

• To enter the study, you must be at least 50 years old, regularly have pain in at least one knee and not have been exercising regularly over the past six months.
• Your doctor must confirm you have knee osteoarthritis.
• Study volunteers will also need to meet a certain level of physical limitation on our survey and not have rheumatoid arthritis.
• The eight-week study consists of three sessions a week of home-based exercise. Some people will be assigned a non-exercise treatment, but can join the exercise program afterward.
• All tests, therapies and five training sessions are free.
• Study volunteers are not compensated for their time or mileage.
