Short-term changes in radiographic joint space width after jiggling exercise as conservative treatment for hip osteoarthritis: A retrospective case series of nine patients.

Jiggling exercise is a conservative treatment for hip osteoarthritis, which involves continuous shaking of the foot and leg in small oscillations while seated. Previous studies have shown beneficial effects of jiggling exercises for outpatients with advanced- and terminal-stage hip osteoarthritis wh...
