“What type of massage is best for arthritis?”

Sport massage/range of motion

While massage therapy can be helpful for managing arthritis symptoms, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. Different types of massage may be more beneficial for different people and their specific types of arthritis. That being said, some types of massage that may be helpful for knee arthritis include Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, and myofascial release. It's important to consult with a licensed massage therapist to determine the best course of action for your individual needs. In addition to massage, other treatment options for knee arthritis may include exercise, physical therapy, medications, and in some cases, surgery.

Deep friction is best bet.
