I suffer from very painful osteoarthritis of the knees and ankles which substantially limits my mobility and makes it virtually impossible to exercise - I can't walk very far or stand for any length of time (so frustrating!). I used to be very active, strong and vigorous - 3 years now I've had this condition which came on almost overnight.
Anyway, I'm always on the lookout to find ways of increasing my mobility and someone has suggested rebounding. I like the idea because it apparently gives you a very low-impact workout but I've also heard a few conflicting opinions online about its use with arthritic joints and so I can't decide whether to invest in one or not. I won't get a cheap one so it's a substantial outlay for me.
Does anyone have any experience of the effectiveness of rebounding for joint rehabilitation?
