Arthritis is a condition that affects more than 50 million Americans, and is more common in women. If you suffer from one of the more than 100 different types of arthritis conditions, then you know how difficult everyday activities like opening a jar or getting dressed can be.
Although this condition canโt be cured, there are things you can do to manage arthritis pain symptoms. One of the best ways to reduce pain is through exercise. You might think activity will exacerbate joint pain, but thatโs not the case. Movement helps lubricate joint tissue and strengthens the surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments that serve to take pressure off of weakened joints.
When choosing a new form of exercise, youโll want to pick one that is joint-friendly. Yoga can be an enjoyable and low-impact activity that can help you stay fit while increasing your range of motion. In honor of May being National Arthritis Awareness Month, yoga and fitness expert Sara Fowler, RN shares basic poses you can do right now to keep your body flexible and pain-free.
Another way to manage joint and rheumatic pain is by addressing flare-ups at the onset with a homeopathic medicine. ย Arnicare Arthritis can help relieve minor aches and pains associated with arthritis, especially those caused by changes in weather.* The quick-dissolving tablets are non-drowsy and can be taken with other arthritis treatments and medications as there are no known interactions. Arnicare Arthritis can also be used with Arnicare topicals for targeted spot relief.
