The movements were modified by Dr. Paul Lam the director of Tai-chi for Health Institute to tailor them for people with arthritis. Studies have found that the program improves balance. It also decreases pain and improves physical function in people with osteoarthritis of hips or knees by increasing muscular strength and flexibility.
