September is Arthritis Awareness Month
Arthritis affects millions of Canadians, and for many, it can make travel feel more challenging. But with the right preparation, living with arthritis doesn’t have to mean giving up on new adventures. Travel health professionals can play an important role in helping patients plan ahead for comfort, safety, and wellness while abroad.
From choosing supportive seating on long flights to timing medications across time zones and packing prescriptions securely, a travel health consultation can provide practical strategies to make every journey smoother. Pairing this with up-to-date vaccines and preventive care helps patients travel with confidence — and comfort.
