5 Ways To Naturally Relieve Arthritis Pain
1. Exercise. It is vital to strengthen muscles, increase flexibility and improve blood flow. Cartilage actually receives its nutrition from joint fluid, so the more you can exercise the better. It is also important to mix between weight bearing and non-weight bearing exercises, such as aquatic exercises or bicycling. It is highly recommended that you see a physical therapist first before starting an arthritis exercise regime. 2. Vitamins. There are a mix of studies showing some benefits to using glucosomine and chondroitin. Glucosomine is naturally made in the body and helps support the cartilage by retaining water and preventing wear. Additional supplements may help. 3. Avoid Inflammatory Foods. There are foods that increase the body’s natural inflammation response. Arthritis is a condition of joints that become inflamed. Therefore, by avoiding foods with high fat, fried foods, sodas, high sugar content and processed foods, you help to naturally relieve the inflammation in your body.
4. Calcium and Magnesium. Many people are deficient in calcium and magnesium. Having enough calcium and magnesium, builds strong bones and reduces irritated nerve endings, decreasing pain. If possible, find supplements that are in powder form that can be easily digested and help your body’s intake of these essential minerals. 5. Sleep. Sleep is a time for our body and brain to repair itself. It is important to make sure you are getting enough sleep. 7-8 hours at least to allow your body to repair and decrease pain. When you are tired, your body does not function as well, increasing the inflammatory response and reduces your pain threshold. Physical therapy is one of the best ways to improve your arthritis pain. We help you by reducing pain and inflammation in your joints, then increase your strength and flexibility so your joints are healthier.
