Rebuilding Joints, Not Just Replacing Them: Managing Osteoarthritis with Steffan Cavalera
Description
In today’s episode, I’m joined by physiotherapist Steffan Cavalera from Kieser in Melbourne, and we’re diving deep into osteoarthritis—what it is, how it’s diagnosed, and why surgery isn’t always the first step. We unpack the rising burden on our healthcare system, explore the full pyramid of care from conservative management to surgical options, and break down the 5-tier approach he uses with clients. Whether you’re navigating joint pain yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with real-world, practical insights to help you move better and feel stronger—without jumping straight to the operating table.
