Tell us a bit more, Ron, about the OA, the pain, and his occupations. Also - which previous therapy? Was he taught joint protection techniques, and is he using them? Does he have the right tools/assistive devices, and is he using them? How's the pain corresponding to activity, rest, heat, cold, time of day...? How is he responding to the pain? What would he be doing (more of) if it wasn't for the pain?
