We take the freedom of movement for granted, until it becomes limited. The cause of this for many people comes in the form of arthritis, or the inflammation of one or more of your joints.

 

There are two main kinds, osteo and rheumatoid, both of which affect the joint in different ways.

 

Osteo arthritis is when the cartilage between bones wears down, until bone grates on bone.

 

Rheumatoid is little less straightforward, being caused by an autoimmune disorder that causes inflammation of the synovial membrane (a soft tissue that protects joints in the body) and that can lead to bone loss.

 

Whichever you experience, there are home remedies for arthritis to manage the pain and ease the symptoms naturally.

 

Try These 14 Home Remedies for Arthritis

 

  1. Turmeric & Ginger Tea

 

Turmeric and ginger are both anti-inflammatories, and will help with oseto and rheumatoid arthritis.

 

Turmeric in particular has gotten a lot of attention lately. Its active ingredient is something called curcumin, which is a powerful antioxidant. In addition, it lowers the levels of 2 enzymes responsible for causing inflammation (which is what we’re often fighting with arthritis.)

 

You can take these in a capsule form or make a nice spicy tea to enjoy daily.

 

You will need…

 

-2 cups of water
-1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
-1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
-Honey to taste

 

Directions

 

Bring 2 cups of water to a boil, and had ½ teaspoon each ground ginger and ground turmeric. Reduce to a simmer and let it be for 10-15 minutes. Strain, add honey to taste, and enjoy twice daily. This yields 2 servings.

 

 

 

  1. Epsom salt soak

 

Epsom salt contains magnesium sulfate which sounds kind of scary, but it’s really quite a wonderful substance.

 

A naturally occurring mineral, magnesium sulfate has been used to get relief from pain for years, namely because of its high levels of magnesium (more on magnesium below.)

 

You will need…

 

-1/2 cup of Epsom salt
-A large bowl
-Warm water

 

Directions

 

Fill a large bowl with warm water and add ½ cup of Epsom salt. Stir it around, and then submerge your sore joints in the liquid.

 

If you are experiencing pain in a less convenient place to soak, such as your knees, try taking a bath with Epsom salts. Run a tub full of warm water and add 2 cups of Epsom salt. Soak for 15 minutes (at least.)

 

  1. Get more magnesium (seriously.)

 

Magnesium is something our bodies need, but we can’t make it ourselves. It is used in over 300 different biomechanical responses in our body. It relaxes all our muscles and nerve endings, relieving stiffness and pain.

 

It is even part of what makes our heart beat. Not only does it relax muscles and ease pain (this goes for arthritis pain too, of course) it helps bones to mineralize.

 

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition conducted one of many studies on magnesium that showed people who had a diet high in magnesium/took supplements had higher bone density, and overall stronger bones.

 

There are several ways to get more magnesium and utilize it for arthritis in particular.

 

Supplements: Magnesium capsules are a good thing to add to your day-to-day life, but they work best when used in conjunction with an improved diet.

 

Diet: Really this is the clincher-as great as supplements are, they can’t do everything. Eat foods that are high in magnesium, which include dark leafy greens (like spinach), nuts, and legumes (beans.)

 

Oil: There is magnesium oil that can be applied topically and absorbed through the skin. Try rubbing it on sore joints to relieve pain.

 

  1. Lubricate With Extra Virgin Olive Oil

 

The very consistency of olive oil makes it seem like something that would lubricate your joints and ease arthritis pain, and it turns out, it actually does.

 

A main compound in extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) called oleocanthal inhibits inflammatory enzymes COX-1 and COX-2, just like Advil or aspirin does. A study showed that 1 ½ tablespoons is equal to 200-mg of ibuprofen.

 

However, not every oil is created equal. Heat destroys oleocanthal, so it is necessary to use extra virgin olive oil or “cold-pressed.” The ripeness of the olives at the time they were pressed also determines the level of oleocanthal-generally the stronger tasting the oil, the higher the level there is present.

 

It can be taken internally to reap the benefits, but being high in calories consider replacing any fats, such as butter, with it in cooking instead.

 

You will need…

 

-2-3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil

 

Directions

 

Rub a bit of olive oil onto your sore joints twice a day, massaging in to each one gently. You can also take 2-3 tablespoons daily, but be sure to give up some other form of fat due to the high calorie count in the oil (rest easy, these are good calories.)

 

  1. Dandelion Leaves

 

Incredibly high in vitamins A and C, dandelion leaves can help repair damaged tissue and help the liver clear toxins out of the blood. Studies, although limited, have also shown anti-inflammatory properties due to the linoleic and linoleic acid in them.

 

Linoleic is an essential fatty acid required by the body to produce prostaglandin-which basically regulates immune responses and suppresses inflammation.

 

Because of its involvement with immune responses, dandelion shows great potential when it comes to treating rheumatoid arthritis in particular. You can enjoy dandelion leaves in nice salad, or brew tea with them.

 

You will need…

 

-3 teaspoons of fresh dandelion leaves, or 1 teaspoon of dried
-1 cup of boiling water
-A handful of fresh leaves (if making a salad)
-A dash of extra virgin olive oil (if making a salad)

 

Directions

 

For fresh dandelion tea, steep 3 teaspoons of fresh leaves or 1 teaspoon dried in 1 cup of boiling water. Strain and drink twice daily.

 

Dandelion tea is very bitter…you have been warned! You can add honey to sweeten it up if you’d like.

 

To make a salad, simply toss the greens in with another recipe, or eat them plain with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Older leaves can be gently sautéed to soften them up a bit.

 

  1. Blackstrap Molasses Drink

 

High in valuable minerals such as calcium, potassium, and magnesium, blackstrap molasses has been one of the most cherished home remedies for arthritis for a number of years.

 

Blackstrap molasses is what remains after the 3rd boiling of sugar syrup, and is nothing like the nutrient lacking refined sugars used today.

 

As a dietary supplement (easily consumed as a drink) blackstrap can help relieve symptoms of arthritis and joint pain, thanks to its vital constituents that regulate nerve and muscle function, and strengthen bones.

 

You will need…

 

-1 tablespoon of blackstrap molasses
-1 cup of warm water

 

Directions

 

Heat 1 cup of fresh water until warm, but not hot. Stir in a tablespoon of blackstrap molasses and drink once daily. Do note that it can sometimes have a laxative effect.

 

  1. White Willow Tea (the original aspirin)

 

Before there was aspirin, and I mean way before aspirin, there was white willow bark. The Greek physician Hippocrates wrote about it all the way back in 5th century BC.

 

It wasn’t until 18-something or other (1829, I believe) that it was found that white willow was so effective because it contained an active ingredient called salicin.

 

Salicin is converted in the body into salicylic acid-similar to acetyl salicylic acid, the active ingredient in aspirin. But because the naturally occurring salicin is converted after it passed through the stomach, it resulted in less irritation/side effects.

 

While it can be taken in a capsule form, I usually opt for the tea version of just about everything.

 

You will need…

 

-2 teaspoons of powdered or chipped white willow bark
-1 cup of water
-Honey or lemon to taste

 

Directions

 

Bring 1 cup (8 oz.) of water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Add 2 teaspoons of powdered or chipped white willow bark and let it infuse for 10-15 minutes.

 

Remove from heat and let it steep for 30 more minutes. Drink twice daily-it’s bitter, so honey and lemon are usually welcome here.

 

  1. Exercise

 

When it’s painful and difficult just to move, the last thing you feel like doing is getting up and exercising. As unpleasant as it may sound though, exercise is vital for those who suffer from any form of stiffness, joint pain, or arthritis.

 

Exercise will help control weight (an excess of which puts more strain on your joints) strengthens the muscles that support the joint, even when the cartilage is thinning, and lubricates the joints, allowing them to move more freely.

 

When we are inactive the synovial fluid in the joints is the consistency of a thick gel, but once we get moving and warming up, the liquid becomes more viscous and can do a better job of lubricating our joints and keeping them going smoothly.

 

Just imagine if you were to be sedentary every day, pretty soon you’d be so stiff it’d be just about impossible to move. But if you get up and move around every day, you’ll get stronger and will loosen up as well.

 

Try…
-Going for a brisk walk-start with 15 minutes and work your way up into a solid daily routine.
-Doing joint-targeted exercises-certain stretches and exercises specifically target joints to help rid them of stiffness and pain.
-Getting a dog-doing so backs up the first point, because you’ll have no choice but to walk!

 

  1. Peppermint Eucalyptus Oil Blend

 

Peppermint and eucalyptus don’t change the course of the arthritis itself, but they do have analgesic, or pain-relieving, properties. The cooling sensation that they produce can temporarily override your discomfort, and create a soothing sensation that can ease the pain of arthritis.

 

You will need…

 

-5-10 drops of Peppermint oil
-5-10 drops of Eucalyptus oil
-1-2 tablespoons of carrier oil (olive, almond, grape seed, etc.)
-A small dark glass bottle

 

Directions

 

Blend 5-10 drops of eucalyptus and peppermint oil together, and then mix into 1-2 tablespoons of carrier oil.

 

Carrier oil is needed to dilute the essential oil so that it does not irritate the skin, and can be olive oil, grapeseed oil, or something of the like (not oil.)

 

Store the oil blend in dark glass bottle away from direct sunlight, and rub into your joints when they ache.

 

  1. Juniper Berry Tea

 

A 2009 research trial published in the “Journal of Ethnopharmacology” found that juniper berries do indeed help with arthritis pain thanks to a component called terpinen-4-ol.

 

Terpene suppresses a type of white blood cells called monocytes which, as a part of our immune system, respond to signals of inflammation.

 

In rheumatoid arthritis, the immune system attacks normal joint tissue for no reason, leading to inflammation, pain, and loss of function.

 

If taken daily, juniper may be able to reduce the uncomfortable inflammation thanks to its terpene content. Only prickly juniper and common juniper varieties were effective.

 

Note: Do NOT drink juniper berry tea while pregnant.

 

You will need…

 

-1 tablespoon of dried juniper berries
-1 cup of fresh water
-Honey (optional)

 

Directions

 

Bring 1 cup of fresh water to a boil, and place 1 tablespoon of dried juniper berries in a mug. Pour the boiling water over the berries and let them steep for 20 minutes before straining. Drink 1 cup twice daily, and add honey to taste if you like.

 

  1. Golden Raisins & Gin

 

First off I am not recommending that you go and drink gin, but I thought this was one of the most interesting old home remedies for arthritis.

 

Gins flavor is derived from juniper berries (see #10 for a more in depth explanation of juniper berries) which contain anti-inflammatory properties.

 

Golden raisins (only golden can be used in this recipe) require sulfides in their processing to give them their characteristic color.

 

Sulfides are found in both glucosamine and chondroitin, which many people have found to be helpful home remedies for arthritis.

 

This remedy stretches back at least 20 years, and some people swear by it, while others have had limited success.

 

You will need…

 

-Around 1/2 cup of gin
-1 cup of golden raisins
-a shallow dish

 

Directions

 

The amounts will vary depending on how big of a batch you are making, but basically you just need raisins and enough gin to just cover them, and the above amounts are just to give a general guideline.

 

I am one of those people who, even if it is a loosely interpreted recipe, like to have some numbers to start with. Anyways, place 1 cup of golden raisins in a shallow dish, and pour in enough gin to just barely cover them.

 

Cover with a towel and store them away in a dark place until the gin has evaporated (around 2 weeks.) Eat 9 of the raisins daily, keeping in mind the results may take several weeks to show.

 

  1. Bosweilla supplements

 

Also known as Frankincense, Bosweilla is a flowering plant native to Africa and Asia. The gum resin or extract of the plant works as an anti-inflammatory and pain-killer.

 

It works against inflammation by ‘disabling’ white blood cells that would cause swelling, and also helps shrink tissue that has already become inflamed and painful.

 

I am afraid I don’t have a tea recipe for this one, as it is generally taken in a tablet supplement form, much like a vitamin. It is sold at many health stores and online, and is fairly reasonably priced compared to what some other supplements cost.

 

  1. Pectin & Grape Juice

 

Pectin is a water soluble carbohydrate substance found in the cell walls of plants, where it helps keep cell walls together, and gives fruit firmness as it ripens.

 

It is extracted from fruit to use as a setting in jams and jellies, and has become popular as a home remedy for arthritis when combined with grape juice.

 

It has been tentatively hypothesized that it helps return the synovial tissue to a more elastic and lubricated state, which results in pain-free movement.

 

Despite the fact that more studies are needed on pectin and connective tissue many people have found, for whatever reason, great relief from their arthritis with it.

 

The grape juice is the liquid of choice due to the fact that it can help with inflammation.

 

You will need…

 

-1 tablespoon of liquid pectin
-8 oz. of grape juice

 

Directions

 

Mix 1 tablespoon of liquid pectin with 8 oz. of grape juice and drink 1-2 times daily. It will take a week or two for the effects to show.

 

  1. Cayenne ‘Capsaicin’ Ointment

 

A common OTC pain reliever for joint pain contains capsaicin, a component in hot peppers that inhibits something called Substance P.

 

Substance P is involved in transmitting pain signals to our brain, and when the capsaicin interferes with it, it minimizes the alert to the discomfort, and therefore the discomfort itself.

 

It has been one of the more effective topical treatments for arthritis, and you can make your own at home with humble cayenne.

 

Keep in mind, however, that it is only a temporary fix and should be used sparingly if possible.

 

To prepare Original Capsaicin Cream Recipe for treating arthritis

 

You will need…

 

-3 tablespoons of cayenne powder
-1 cup of grapeseed oil (or any other oil like almond, olive, jojoba)
-1/2 cup of grated beeswax
-A double boiler
-A glass jar with a tightly fitting lid

 

Directions

 

Mix together 3 tablespoons of cayenne powder with 1 cup of your oil of choice and heat in a double boiler for 5-10 minutes over medium heat. Stir in a 1/2 cup of grated beeswax and continue to stir until it has melted completely and everything is blended together.

 

Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, and then whisk together. Chill for another 10-15 and then whip again before putting it in a glass jar with a tightly fitting lid and storing in the refrigerator. It will keep for 1 ½ weeks-apply daily as needed for pain.

 

Our body is an incredible structure that takes a great amount of strain and stress every single day-it’s really no wonder our joints, the things that allows us movement, begin to feel the burden.

In the case of rheumatoid arthritis, the complexity of the body provides a mystery that we may or may not ever solve. Whichever form of arthritis or joint pain you happen to suffer from, a deeper understanding of what is causing it can help you determine the best way to treat it.

 

Nature also does a surprisingly good job at healing-we wouldn’t have made it very far otherwise-and you may find great success in naturally treating your condition and regaining the freedom of movement.

Are you looking for ways to have a nice, firm butt?

 

If you do, this is a Video HERE for you to have a nice, firm butt

 

Have you ever seen people that have lost weight but still don’t have a nice, firm butt?

 

That’s because they are focusing on all the wrong things.

I know from experience…

 

I used to be overweight. Even when I lost the weight I still had a saggy butt.

 

But after trying a million things, I finally figured out the secrets to lift a saggy butt. Now, I have a nice, firm butt that I love to show off in a bikini.

 

So here’s my first secret:

 

Do resistance butt training!

Now by resistance, I mean actually using weight to put resistance on that muscle.

 

A lot of women think that if they lift weights, they are going to get all bulky and look like a man.

 

But when you target the muscle with resistance weight training, it gets tighter and toner because muscle takes up much less space than fat.

You’ll see your clothes get looser and looser, as your butt gets tighter and tighter.

 

Don’t worry if you are born with those “fat storing” genetics… so was I and I thought I would never be able to lift my saggy butt. You’ll be AMAZED at how your butt gets lifted and firm in no time.

 

This next exercise I’m going to share with you is called a “rainbow”.

You can find a nice comfortable mat or you can also do this on a carpet. Just make sure that you’ve got some kind of protection for your knees, even by putting a towel underneath.

 

What we are going to do is grab a weight. I have a 15 pound weight here. You can start with the five pound or a 10 pound weight, whatever feels comfortable.

 

The most important thing is to put your muscle under resistance because that’s going to get you more results even faster.

 

That’s going to build that lean, tone muscle that gives you a really great shape to your butt.

 

It’s going to lift that saggy butt fast.

 

While you are setting up for the “rainbows”, place your hands underneath your shoulders.

 

Take a moment to line up your wrists to your elbows and your shoulders and then place your hands shoulder width apart. It’s really important that you have a good foundation.

 

You can feel all four corners of your hands and your knees, it’s all really nice and balanced.

 

This is going to prevent injury as well as isolate the butt muscle.

So I am going to show you the movement without the weight. It’s called a “rainbow”.

 

You are just going to lift your knee up to the side and then lower it down.

Now I am going to add that weight resistance so that we really target the top of the butt muscle.

It’s called the gluteus muscle.

It’s going to give you that nice, round, upward lift. You take the weight and place it right behind your knee.

 

You can see that this is going to give a nice, firm anchor so that I can lock my knee tight. I am going to setup back in my form and take a moment to get balanced.

 

Now keeping that muscle engaged the entire time, I am going to lift the knee and then lower.

Do you feel the difference?

 

Let’s do this five times. Make sure you are breathing, really isolating that butt muscle. You can feel the top of the butt muscle rounding.

 

You can feel how just a few exercises really get in there. That’s because we are using the weight.

 

So work up to doing 50 reps on each side. That’s going to really give you a tone, tight tush and lift your saggy butt.

 

Now remember, there are lots of weight resistant butt exercises that you can do.

 

Keep practicing and you will see results fast in the form of a nice, firm butt.

Breathing As a Powerful Eczema Treatment

Breathing As a Powerful Eczema Treatment - Sometimes treatments come from the unlikeliest of sources. A powerful eczema treatment which we, most probably, have never heard before is an exercise that aims to bring our breathing levels to normal. Read on to find out more.

Discover How Breathing Can Be A Powerful Eczema Treatment

 

Did you know that our breathing has important effects not only on the circulation of our blood and oxygenation of our organs and tissues, but also on our skin?

 

Medical studies confirm that when we breathe heavy, our lungs lose excessive amounts of CO2, resulting to a serious drop of CO2 levels in our arterial blood beyond the normal amount.

 

This deficiency in CO2 levels constricts the arteries and arterioles, lessening the blood supply to our tissues, and consequently, reducing the delivery of oxygen to the different parts of our body. In one to two minutes, we may faint or pass out.

 

It is, therefore, a must that our body gets the required amount of oxygen and blood supply in order for it to work efficiently and normally.

 

We can do a simple test called stress-free breath holding to find out if our circulation and oxygenation levels are normal. Using this test we will use the length of time that a person is able to hold his breath after exhaling with no feelings of distress as an indicator of his circulation and oxygenation.

 

If he can hold his breath for 40-60 seconds, his breathing is normal. When he can only hold his breath for less than 40 seconds, then it is not normal.

 

Among those who have problems with their breathing are those who suffer from different skin conditions. People who have psoriasis, dermatitis, neurodemitis, and eczema constantly over breathe.

 

In fact using the stress-free breath holding test, we will find out that they can hold their breath for only 10-15 seconds, figures which are significantly less than the normal levels which range from 40-60 seconds.

 

This is not surprising for experts. After all, the sick have the tendency to take deeper and bigger breaths. As a result, their oxygenation and circulation is less than what is required by their bodies. It is important to reduce one’s breathing to boost the oxygen levels in our body.
Medical doctors in Russia were able to discover and successfully employ a breathing exercise to help those who are confronted with this problem. By doing the exercise, we can bring our breathing to normal levels after two to three minutes.

 

Breathing Exercise as a Powerful Eczema Treatment

 

Sometimes treatments come from the unlikeliest of sources. An eczema treatment which we, most probably, have never heard before is an exercise that aims to bring our breathing levels to normal.
This is how this powerful eczema treatment works:

 

First you need to be seated on a chair, straighten up (spine must be straight), relax your muscles, and concentrate on your breathing. Observe how this makes you feel.

 

If your senses fail you, breathe in and out, keep calm, before you exhale slowly. Once you feel air passing in and out of your nostrils, moving within your bronchi and chest, as well as at the back of your throat, then you are on the right track.

 

After exhaling, carefully inhale and make sure, that while doing so, you taking smaller inhalations. Typically this should be less than five to 10 percent.

 

After this, relax your muscles particularly those in your upper chest and those that you use for breathing. Repeat the process before you fully relax. As you breathe in and out, make sure that you are taking smaller inhalations.

 

When you repeat this several times, you will feel light air hunger. What you need to do is to sustain this hunger from two to three minutes. As you continue to do this breathing exercise, you will feel that your breathing is turning normal within the same period.

Here are 10 Biggest Arthritis Mistakes You Should Avoid

 

Here are 10 Biggest Arthritis Mistakes You Should Avoid - I see 10 common arthritis mistakes people make when dealing with joint pain. Read on to find out more.
CLICK HERE NOW TO GET “ARTHRITIS REVERSED” FREE TODAY!

 

Enjoy this special condensed report from Dr. Mark Wiley, excerpted from the new book Arthritis Reversed: 30 Days to Lasting Relief From Joint Pain and Arthritis

 

No one is perfect, not even doctors. Mistakes are OK when dealing with health and trying to recreate a better quality of life. It’s when you don’t realize you are making mistakes that real problems occur or that success is lost.

 

I see 10 common arthritis mistakes people make when dealing with joint pain. These are detailed more fully in Dr. Mark Wiley’s book Arthritis Reversed: 30 Days to Lasting Relief From Joint Pain and Arthritis

 

Here’s a quick synopsis of the biggest arthritis mistakes you should avoid

 

#1 Waiting too long to address arthritis

 

Waiting too long allows the condition to take hold and entrench itself in the body, to progress and to wreak havoc. Waiting allows arthritis to steal days and joy from your life.

 

#2 Undergoing arthroscopic surgery

 

Research that is now widely known and referenced indicates without doubt that arthroscopic surgery to “repair” arthritic joints and the space between them does not work.

 

#3 Avoiding exercise, being sedentary

 

The medical community is now changing its view and realizing that being active, moving around, taking walks and so on reduces the severity of arthritis.

 

Lubricating the joints, maintaining their range of motion, improving blood flow, and stabilizing the muscles around arthritic joints reduces inflammation and pain. Anyone can suffer arthritis, not just the sedentary and sick.

 

#4 Assuming you won’t get arthritis if you are “physically fit” and “eat right”

 

It is important to be healthy and fit; more people need to do this. Yet it is the people who train the hardest, who run and jump the most over prolonged period who wear down their joints and damage the cartilage between them.
#5 Not realizing or believing diet and nutrition play major roles in arthritis

 

One of the key components of osteoarthritis prevention and reversal is embracing an organic, nutrient-dense diet and taking nutritional supplements to reduce symptoms and shore up wellness.

 

Bone health, joint health, tendon and ligament and muscle health are vital to preventing and reducing the effects of arthritis.

#6 Thinking doctors and medical specialists have all the answers

 

Although orthopedists and immunologists are highly educated in their field of treatment, they are often ignorant of the natural and holistic options and therapies available. It is important to note, however, that a medical specialist may  have the right option for you.

 

So keep an open mind in all cases and do look for multiple opinions and resources when considering the path you will take on your road to a better life.

 

#7 Not giving natural therapies their due time

 

Natural therapies that gently work the energy lines, the soft tissue and the skeletal system do work. They offer relief but they do so over time.

 

Please give natural therapies and solutions time to do what they do in a natural way. It is a mistake just to “try” them for a short period, or even a single time.

#8 Continuing on a treatment plan that’s not working

 

If you give a natural remedy the time necessary to work as it should, and it falls short for you or does not seem to help you, then it is a mistake to keep doing it.

 

On the same note, continuing along a plan of medication to mask symptoms of arthritis that is not successful in altering the condition in a positive way is also a mistake.

 

Continuing to do what is not working for you is stealing time from your life.

 

#9 Believing there are no more options left

 

There is plenty of hope when it comes to most cases of arthritis; believing there are no options left is a mistake. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to arthritis.

 

#10 Failing to take personal control of your situation

 

You are the one suffering, so relying solely on others to take care of your condition is a big mistake. It is only you who can change your lifestyle and habits, so become self-empowered and take control.

 

Fight Inflammation

 

In many cases, the condition that allows pain, illness and disease to take hold, making us feel unwell is chronic low-grade inflammation. Pain is certainly a major symptom of arthritis. However, pain is generally felt as a reaction to swelling or inflammation in the body. Pain is the body’s way of telling you something is wrong and in need of change.

 

You’ll find numerous ways to fight inlammation within the book, Arthritis Reversed: 30 Days to Lasting Relief From Joint Pain and Arthritis

Enjoy this special condensed report from Dr. Mark Wiley, excerpted from the new book Arthritis Reversed: 30 Days to Lasting Relief From Joint Pain and Arthritis

 

For any wellness action plan to work there must be a clear understanding of the various aspects involved. The puzzle pieces must be identified before steps can be taken to piece them together. This all begins with clearing up the arthritis myths and setting forth the facts of the situation with regards to treating arthritis.

 

I wish to present you with some of the most common myths surrounding arthritis (watch this Video HERE). Please take the time to read and consider each myth. For those arthritis myths you believe, try instead turning your mind toward understanding and then believing the facts about arthritis.

 

Myth #1: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Osteoarthritis (OA) are the Same

 

There are over 100 different types of arthritis; the three most common being osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and juvenile arthritis (JA). While RA and JA are diseases, osteoarthritis (OA) is not a disease at all. It is a symptom of joint degeneration.

 

OA is the result of any combination of several external factors, including traumatic physical injury and excessive sports or physical activities over the course of decades. This causes wear-and-tear of the joints, the cartilage separating the joints, and the surrounding tissues.

 

Most people with arthritis have OA and only 1 percent have RA. So, you likely don’t actually have a disease, but have symptoms that are quite management with natural, non-invasive approaches!

 

Myth #2: Arthritis Is a Normal Part of Aging and Only Affects the Elderly

 

Since there are plenty of elderly afflicted with arthritic conditions, it is understandable how this myth has formed and taken hold. However, arthritis is NOT a normal part of the aging process.

 

OA is a result of joint wear and tear based on injury and/or overuse. It can come on at any time–or not at all. By keeping the immune system strong and stable, eating right, exercising right and taking care of bone and joint health, the onset and debilitating effects of arthritis need not be part of your aging process.

 

When you find you have the condition you can stop it and reduce or even reverse its symptoms!

 

Myth #3: If You Don’t Look “Sick,” You Don’t have RA

 

Even when people do not have the visible outward signs of RA, such as red swollen joints and misshapen fingers, they can still suffer symptoms, like joint pain, fatigue and a general sense of feeling unwell. RA is an autoimmune disease and can be active before visible signs of it manifest.

 

The best way to know if you have RA, or are at risk for, RA is to speak to your primary care physician, look into family history and do some blood work.

 

Myth #4: If You Have Arthritis, You Should not Exercise

 

This is a myth most believed by those suffering the symptoms of arthritic pain and inflammation. Decades ago patients were told not to exercise because it would rub the joints and make things worse. This is incorrect.

 

While it is true that depending on your arthritis type and conditions certain exercises should be avoided, this is not a blanket statement about all forms of exercise.

 

The fact is, a certain amount of exercise can greatly help reduce the symptoms of arthritis. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) advocates exercises to help keep your muscles strong and your joints flexible.

Myth #5: Different Climates Have No Effect on Arthritis

 

The National Institutes of Health accurately note there is no scientific evidence to support the notion that cold weather or environments cause arthritis or alter its course, or that warm weather can reverse or cure arthritis. Yet both cold and warm weather can affect arthritis in negative or positive ways.

 

Cold weather constricts muscles, tendons and blood vessels, causing constriction around the joints, leading to pain and limited range of motion. Heat allows muscles to expand and blood to flow, relieving compression around joints and moving fresh blood to the area, which reduces pain and stiffness.

Myth #6: Arthritis Will Lead to Disability, Wheelchair, Nursing Home

 

This one is formed and held in place by our individual belief systems. As a result of our history of poor arthritis diagnosis, treatment and prevention methods, many who contracted arthritis did end up with a walker, in a wheelchair and living in assisted environments. Seeing them today can make one think the same will happen to you. However, what used to be fact is now fiction.

 

With information on diet, supplementation and with aided therapies like chiropractic, acupuncture, quantum touch and others, there are many restorative options available to halt its progression and prevent it. Taking the necessary steps mean this old myth is no longer valid today!

Myth #7: Arthritis Sufferers Have To Live In Pain

 

This is a huge myth that is widely believed because many arthritis sufferers do live in pain, with daily stiffness and inflammation. They are suffering greatly, yet needlessly because they don’t know all the parts of the arthritis puzzle.

 

Engaging in mind/body exercises to reduce stress, eating an anti-inflammatory diet, stretching, exercising, taking proper supplementation, using therapeutic creams and seeing practitioners for complementary wellness visits, you can greatly reduce, if not almost completely remove, the daily throbbing pain of arthritis.

 

Myth #8: Arthritis Can’t Be Reversed

 

It is easy to see why people think this, and thus how the myth started, but it simply is untrue. You see, many of the “common beliefs” about arthritis are derived from a Western medical point of view.

 

This view believes nothing can be done to reverse damage, and so patients need to manage their condition as best they can. However, traditional and holistic medicines have natural methods for increasing bone density, rebuilding bone and regenerating soft tissue.

 

In other words, there is a natural approach to reversing damage done by arthritis based on using supplements, topical creams and energy medicine.
