What Are Natural Treatments For Arthritis Sufferers?

In the fight against the painful conditions brought on by arthritis, there is a wide range of alternative and natural treatments that have come to the forefront. These treatments are quite often used in conjunction with traditional therapies. Because the results vary and because there is sometimes a reluctance on the part of the medical community to recognize their effectiveness it is often left to each individual to research and seek to verify the validity of the results that may be claimed.

Have you already tried natural treatments for arthritis: YES / NO ?

Keep in mind that there are strict regulations in place with regard to the claims that any treatment can make. Many promises are not backed up with scientific proof and there is a need to proceed cautiously. Because this disease can go into remission on its own for certain lengths of time there can be uncertainty as to the cause. Be sure to respect the therapeutic program and medications that you have worked out with your doctor.

Of valid concern as well is the need to coordinate with your doctor anything that could interact badly with the traditional medications that you may be taking. It is important to not take for granted that just because something is 'natural' that it could not cause any bad reaction.

Have you spoken with your doctor: YES / NO ?

What  is his or her recommendation: ____________________.

Some tried therapies include: acupuncture, herbal and naturopathic medicine, homeopathy and massage therapy. Another - Ayurveda is a Hindu/Indian health based system and philosophy. These approaches take a holistic approach treating the whole person and endeavoring to correct any imbalance in their bodies. This is to effect an improvement in the body's ability to heal itself.

While conventional medicine has long taken a skeptical stance this is slowly changing. Some doctors and hospitals are now incorporating a blend of conventional and alternative. So whereas, a few years back, your doctor may have dismissed these treatments, he may now be more open to them. It still is the wisest course to coordinate your efforts with his.

What's worked and not worked: ____________________.

Does diet and food affect arthritis? This is a hotly disputed question. Science has been slow to agree but everyone is unique and the possibility does exist which seems provable by personal testimonials that there is a definite connection. Science seems to find that the idea that some people do have allergic reactions to some foods - that these reactions could be felt in their joints.

Some evidence seems to find that fasting for short periods can help in that it works to suppress the immune system thus reducing the inflammatory activity for certain types of arthritis. But eating again can cause them to flare up. Some have suggested that following a fast with a vegetarian diet seems to help those with Rheumatoid Arthritis. However this should be supervised by a doctor or nutritionist that can see that you get a balanced diet. And keep in mind that this does not replace taking medications.

Have you tried changing the foods you eat? Has diet affected your arthritis: YES / NO ?

Beside good old fashioned exercise and weight control other non-standard therapies include: hypnosis and visualization, biofeedback, laughter, various gels and creams, the application of heat and cold, and a variety of vitamins and minerals that can also work to improve conditions in the body overall.

There is no end to the number of treatments and promises made. It may be difficult to navigate it all. Try to keep a sound, common sense approach and always try to work in conjunction with your health care professionals.

What are you going to try next for your plan of action: ____________________.
