In Home Arthritis Care in Marina Del Rey

Dressing and Bathing are a huge hassle when your joints don't work as they used to. Seniors with Arthritis know that handling buttons, opening medicine bottles and fastening zippers can be an ordeal with stiff joints and fingers. Fortunately, there are some options on the table. WebMD's article, "Assisted Devices: Living Better with Arthritis" lists some easy tips to use for overcoming your Arthritis. We've listed a few of them below:

1. Medicine bottle openers are inexpensive and can be found in the pharmacy aisle of any drug store.
2. Tub/ Shower rails prevent dangerous slips and slides. Add a non skid mat to double safety.
3. Coiled shoe laces, velcro snaps and long handled shoe horns make short work of putting on footwear.
4. Sock pullers are a simple plastic device that make it easy to slip on socks.
