Summary
Osteoarthritis is actually one of the most common, costly and disabling forms of joint disease, being far more common than rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other forms of joint disease (Cross et al., 2014). Patients with knee osteoarthritis often report muscle weakness, pain, and decreased range of motion, in turn, these symptoms are associated with limited functional capacity and decreased quality of life (da Silva et al., 2015 ) . Reduced range of motion (ROM) of the joint is supposed to be a characteristic feature of osteoarthritis (OA) (Dekker et al., 2009). Previous studies have reported that patients with knee OA demonstrate worse spatiotemporal gait parameters as they walk slower , have shorter step length and shorter single limb support phase (Debi et al., 2012 and Peixoto et al., 20119 ) . Reduced knee motion and in gait velocity during walking compared to healthy controls (Brinkmann and Mankin ,1998 and ) .
