Arthritis Research In
Naturopathy
What is arthritis? This is an incurable and progressive disease
which affects the joints in the body of a human being. The
commonly affected parts are the fingers, wrist, knees and
ankles. However, there are a good number of cases where it
affects other joints such as hip, jaws shoulder – in fact any
place where you will find a joint between two bones can be
affected by this painful disease.
Arthritis Research Points To Alternative Remedies
Arthritis is very painful and needs a lot of medication to
control and manage it. More and more people decide to try out
alternative medicines and procedures to reduce their dependency
on drugs and medical facilities such as physiotherapy,
massages, etc. Fortunately, there is plenty to choose from in
nature. There is little arthritis research done in alternative
medicine; however out of whatever studies have been done, good
vibes are projected.
Some of these natural remedies are effective and some are not.
As with the drugs, it all depends upon the structure and
constitution of each person. Judging from the market niche that
such natural remedies occupy, one can infer that there is a
good demand for such treatment and hence, this is working out
for some people. A good number of arthritis research studies
have shown that indeed there could be serious improvement if
used correctly and consistently.
You may like to consider trying out the following remedies.
Before trying these out, ensure that your family doctor or a
qualified medical practitioner is aware that you are
contemplating such a treatment. There could be side effects
that are not documented yet due to the limited arthritis
research studies conducted till date, which could be averted/
regulated if the treatment is done under strict medical
supervision.
1. Ginger - arthritis research in Netherlands show
that chewing a little of it raw every day can alleviate both
the pain and swelling caused by this disease. This is also
effective when used in different types of foods such as soups,
salads and even sauces.
2. Aloe vera – this miracle herb has an
astonishing 200 beneficial nutritional elements, which
strengthen the body's capacity to fight inflammation and pain.
A good number of arthritis research studies have indicated that
aloe vera extracts improve the basic immune system to such an
extent that it can control even diseases such as arthritis.
3. Bee stings – this method was a favorite ancient
method for alleviating pain and inflammation of joints.
Hippocrates, the Father of medicine, has mentioned it in many
of his documents, recommending it for this purpose. Today, you
do not need to go to the bees, as you can get the bee venom in
the form of injection for ready use.
