ABSTRACT
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory joint dysfunction by inflammation driven autoimmune disease, with joint swelling,pain and stiffness,resulting in severe disability,while increasing the risk of suffering from extra ar-ticular disease.Rehabilitative therapy,as an auxiliary intervention beyond drug therapy,plays an important role in RA treatment, which includes physical therapy, kinesitherapy and occupational therapy. Physical therapies are effective on improving the symptom of RA and alleviating inflammation. Kinesitherapy could reduce inflammatory reaction, im-prove the joint function,reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease,and improve the mental health.Occupational therapy may help them adapt the living and working status,and improve the quality of life.
