Why Choose GLA:D®?

Research from the GLA:D® program in Denmark found symptom progression reduces by up to 32%, improvement in joint stability, and it helps you stay active. Participants report less pain, reduced need for pain medication, and greater confidence in movement, even 12 months after completing the program.
