Arthritis

What is Arthritis?

 

Arthritis refers to inflammation of one or more joints, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling. Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type, characterized by the breakdown of cartilage in the joints, leading to bone-on-bone friction. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system attacks the joints, causing inflammation and damage.
Acupuncture offers relief by stimulating specific points to alleviate pain and inflammation, improve joint function, and promote healing. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herbs like ginger and turmeric possess anti-inflammatory properties and can help manage arthritis symptoms. Physiotherapy focuses on strengthening muscles, improving flexibility, and reducing pain through exercises tailored to individual needs. Osteopathy includes techniques like manual therapy to enhance joint mobility and function.
Osteoarthritis typically requires a multidisciplinary approach combining acupuncture, TCM herbs, osteopathy, and physiotherapy to manage symptoms. By addressing pain, inflammation, and joint function from various angles, this holistic approach can improve the quality of life for individuals living with arthritis.
