Ancient remedy for arthritis



Arthritis is a very old disease. In an effort to overcome it, many ancient remedies have been in existence.

Remedies

The Romans, French and the British used paraffin wax as a heat-inducing introduction to massage. Paraffin therapy provides lubrication and removes the excess fluid from surrounding tissue. In this way it reduces pain and stiffness of the joints. Paraffin efficiently heats the tissues and muscles offering reduction in pain and softens and moisturizes the skin. It also increases the blood circulation of the area under treatment and traps the moisture from under the skin. When blood flows easily, it moves out of the swollen area fast and doesn’t accumulate in the swollen tissue. The significant method to reduce arthritis pain and inflammation is to reduce the quantity of fat in the diet. Turmeric is a very potent anti-inflammatory substance. Boswellia and Ginger are also anti-inflammatory remedies. Protein digesting enzymes and anti-oxidants, which contain Vitamin C and E, should be taken. Supplements of glucosamine and Chondroitin are particularly useful for sufferers of osteoarthritis. For those whom anti-inflammatory drugs trouble the stomach, the use of licorice root and peony root relieves pain. Notopterygium root and Korean ash bark removes wetness from the joints and makes them flexible. Eucommia bark and mulberry stems nurture the joints. Dang gui root, sheng di root and Szechwan lovage root lubricates the joints. Chinese lovage root, Peach kernel and safflower cause proper blood circulation.

Tips

It is required to purchase paraffin hand and foot spa and paraffin wax blocks. Heat the block in the spa and apply to the arthritis-affected joint. Rather than consuming red meat, fats from fish (like salmon, tuna, herring, mackerel, sardines) should be eaten. 100-200 mg per day is the advised amount for Turmeric. It can be taken in capsule form or can be cooked with food. Add it to low fat formulae like mung beans with basmati rice and vegetables. Boswellia should be consumed as capsules with amount 300 mg per day. Dry ginger is also available in capsules. 2 capsules of 500 mg should be taken per day. Ginger can also be eaten fresh or along with tea. A licensed acupuncturist practices localized acupuncture therapy on the inflamed tissue or joint along with electrical heating.
