Natural Remedies for Joint Pain

Although conventional medication can be helpful in treating joint pain symptoms, many people are opting for safer, natural alternatives without the side effects.

Alternative treatment methods such as heat and ice or applying pain patches can offer safe and effective relief from joint pain.

Natural herbal and homeopathic remedies have been proven to effectively address the underlying cause of joint pain and encourage joint pain relief.

Numerous clinical studies have proven the effectiveness of:

Devil's Claw - in treating symptoms of joint pain in conditions such as osteoarthritis, fibrositis, rheumatism and small joint disease.

Glucosamine and Chondroitin - Dietary supplements which help repair cartilage and maintain joint mobility.

Boswellia - a natural anti-inflammatory.

Bromelain – a natural joint pain reliever and anti-inflammatory.

There are also the additional complementary physical therapies such as:

• Massage
• Aromatherapy
• Physiotherapy
• Chiropractic
• Acupuncture

The above are but a few of the many treatments now readily available.

Then, in addition, with the advent of functional and affordable self-care products such as, Acupressure tools and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (acronym TENS) machines, which work by producing a small electrical impulse current to stimulate the nerves for pain management and pain relief – and also infrared and ultrasonic devices that perform similar tasks - there are plenty of alternatives to over-the-counter and prescription medications and their potentially harmful side effects..
