The Opti-OK clinical trial is looking at the frequency of physiotherapy appointments for people with knee osteoarthritis (kneeOA). You will get free physiotherapy treatment, which may be six treatment sessions over three or six weeks, or a single exercise treatment session.  You will also be asked to attend testing sessions at the University of Otago Research Centre at Southland Hospital.
There will be four of these over a six-month period when we will gather health and economic data. All sessions will take 45–60 minutes.
For more information go to: otago.ac.nz/kneeOA
