A Doctor-Approved, Award-Winning Arthritis DVD! What do Osteoarthritis, Gout, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Fibromyalgia have in common? They all trigger joint pain that limit your mobility and your freedom. If you or someone you know or love suffers from aching painful joints... if you find it more difficult to get out of bed in the morning, and make it through your day... if you want to dance, run, play golf or just enjoy life like you used to - then this DVD is for you. Now anyone can ease the suffering from painful joints. You don't have to be fit, flexible, young or slim to benefit from Functional Fitness Arthritis DVD. To get rid of joint pain, you need to exercise. But working out at the gym can be intimidating and buying home exercise equipment is expensive. That's why Functional Fitness utilizes everyday items found in your home and gives you a choice of three levels including seated. Functional Fitness addresses the particular needs of the fastest growing segment of the population - Baby Boomers. The DVD contains two 30 minute seated or standing programs for therapeutic arthritis intervention: Workout 1: Joint Integrity - Medically proven to strengthen and stabilize your tendons and muscles to maintain healthy joints, reduce pain and fatigue and improve muscle and bone strength. Workout 2: Anti-Aging - Reduce pain/stiffness while increasing your flexibility helping your joints to function like a younger person. Functional Fitness starring Suzanne Andrews is the only doctor recommended program developed by an Occupational Therapy practitioner. And it's just what it says it is... it's a way to function every day to build strength and flexibility where you need it the most, when you need it the most. Reviewed by several doctors including arthritis expert, Nathan Wei, MD, 'The Functional Fitness Arthritis DVD program provides a simple, easy to follow, doable program for people with arthritis. Any person with arthritis who is thinking about starting an exercise program needs to view this set of videos first. ' the DVD contains a 30 minute bonus feature 'Medical matters: Arthritis' hosted by Dr. Warren Hersch, featuring Dr. Michael Cohen and Dr. Nadia nor. Both Doctors share their medical expertise on the causes, effects and treatments of arthritis. Suzanne Andrews also offers occupational therapy tips on how to make living with arthritis easier. Review: It's okay. - The exercises are good but Suzanne Andrews is a bit odd and I personally find her kind of annoying. It also says that you don't need any equipment but then requires you to use several different props. Review: Great for improving flexibility - Both of the workouts on this DVD are suitable for the 50+ age group. I like doing these with my husband when I get home from work. I do a more vigorous workout in the morning but he doesn’t do any workout in the morning. He is a remodeling contractor and is active throughout the day. He has good upper and lower body strength but his flexibility is not so good and he is beginning to suffer from arthritis. This causes aches and pains. These workouts are doable for him. He feels better afterwards. The anti-aging workout is the easier of the two and consists mainly of gentle stretches. It begins with a standing routine and ends with a floor routine. I believe the joint integrity is all standing. It involves more movement. You use a ball, a lemon and a stretchy band. We substituted a pillow for the ball and a tennis ball for the lemon. This is a great DVD for PM, preventative maintenance, to keep from suffering from the aches and pains of arthritis by retaining your flexibility.

It's okay.
The exercises are good but Suzanne Andrews is a bit odd and I personally find her kind of annoying. It also says that you don't need any equipment but then requires you to use several different props.

A good workout for me and my osteoarthritis. Just the right speed and I like the variety.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia and was looking for an exercise DVD I could do. This one is not suitable for anyone with limited mobility. If you have just been sedentary and want to get back in shape it is a good choice.

Skip this one
This DVD is a very low quality production. The audio is poor, the staging is very amateurish, and the exercises alternated between way too fast and way too slow. I would recommend many other dvds (things like Tai Chi and walking videos) for arthritis before this one.

An exceptional solution for arthritis pain!
This really alleviates arthritis pain and stiffness. The first workout is so easy that anyone can do it but it is very effective, too... and relaxing. I sleep better with less pain and wake up having more flexibility. The second workout is more challenging but it is also very good.

Every helpful
Very helpful and easy to follow. It does help to relieve stiffness. I ordered this because I use her / water arthritis video which is remarkable. Not disappointed at all. I am 66 years old with severe arthritis in my back and sholders. I fell spook much better doing this. I will use the inside one more when the weather is cooler and I am not able to use the pool.

Totally disappointed in this DVD. After reading all the other reviews I was expecting something more inventive, all the exercises were the same as other DVD' only done slower. Sorry but I found this was a waste of money. On the positive side it arrived within the timescale and well packaged.

Ive just done this for the first time. It lasted about 30 mins and goes through the body from top to toe giving you a good allover stretch. It is slow and quite relaxing to do, and I must say I felt better for it.
