Additional inclusion criteria for study B is satisfaction with applied gait modification pattern in study A, willingness to further learn this pattern and clear improvement in knee adduction moment (approximately 10% reduction). This will be at the discretion of the physiotherapist involved who will have the final decision on inclusion.

Exclusion Criteria

Total knee replacement, rheumatoid arthritis or any other form of inflammatory arthritis (i.e., crystal arthropathy or septic arthritis). Similarly patients with hip osteoarthritis will be excluded, as will people with poor vision that would prevent them from being able to see the visual feedback. Patients who are already included in any other experimental research study (including but not limited to the Vitamin D study and the COOA study) will also be excluded.
