5 Top 5 Ways To Relieve Arthritis Pain Plus Weight Loss
For many people, especially the elderly, arthritis is a debilitating illness. Arthritis causes increased inflammation around the joint that can lead to immobility and pain.
While there are conventional medical treatments that are available for people with arthritis, many wonder what can be done along with medication to help improve mobility with their arthritis. In fact, there are many natural methods to help manage pain and improve mobility.
This article will show you five different alternative therapies and treatments that can help you manage your daily arthritis symptoms and mobility issues.
Hydrotherapy
Web M.D. recommends hydrotherapy as a form of exercise for those with arthritis. Hydrotherapy is similar to exercise and a pool, however, the pool tends to be warmer than a traditional swimming pool. With hydrotherapy, participants can get all of the benefits of regular exercise without any of the impact on joints.
This may be especially beneficial to those with arthritis because the joints are particularly affected. Having an option for exercise that has zero impact on the joints can increase mobility as well as range of motion. Many times hydrotherapy is considered a form of physical therapy and may be covered by insurance.
Range of Motion Exercise
Many sufferers of arthritis keep the affected joints in a tightened position to alleviate pain. Unfortunately, this has the unintended side effect of increasing pain because it shortens ligaments and muscles around the affected joint. This means that instead of decreasing pain over the long-term keeping the joints in a tightened position will increase pain.
The Cleveland Clinic recommends all arthritis sufferers participate in range of motion exercises. The range of motion exercises typically includes stretching and extending the joints to their full ability. Some range of motion programs may include yoga or tai chi.
Lose Weight
Because arthritis causes pain and immobility many sufferers of arthritis have excess weight. The excess weight increases pressure and damage on the joints. The increased pressure and damage on the joints increases pain which causes decreased mobility. It becomes a never ending cycle of increased pain and decreased mobility.
Mayo Clinic recommends that if you have arthritis, you maintain a healthy body weight. If you’re currently overweight and have a difficult time moving a healthy body weight can be maintained through proper diet.
A meeting with a dietitian can help you start a healthy diet if you are not sure where to begin. The dietitian or nutritionist may also have ideas on foods that can help decrease inflammation in the body and reduce pain from your arthritis.
Hot and Cold Therapy
One of the benefits of hot and cold therapy is that it can be done at home. The second benefit to hot and cold therapy is that it is very inexpensive. Heating pads and ice packs are easy to have on hand and don’t cost a lot of money. Healthline suggests that arthritis sufferers try alternating hot and cold therapy to affected joints to decrease pain.
You may find that some days cold therapy works the best on your arthritic joints while other days a heating pad may be better. Having both on hand to use is going to be the best way to ensure that this therapy is effective at increasing your mobility and decreasing your pain.
Massage
The arthritis foundation notes that one of the most beneficial treatments for mobility in arthritis patients is massage. Massage can help increase range of motion simply by relieving tension on stiff muscles and ligaments that surround the arthritic joints.
The arthritis foundation says that the best types of massage for people with arthritis are either deep tissue massage or Swedish massage. If you are having a high amount of pain deep tissue massage may be difficult to tolerate because of how deep into the muscle massage therapist will go. Either way, massage therapy is an easily accessible treatment to help increase your range of motion when you have arthritis.
While arthritis will not go away no matter how well you take care of your body, you can manage your symptoms and stop the progression of the disease. If you combine medication with these holistic approaches to treatment, you are sure to have a happier and pain-free life.

Want To Know If You Are Ageing Well?
Do You Want To Know How Well Your Ageing?
“We are not making any money off this information we are providing you”
• A simple yet comprehensive indicator of overall cellular wellness, TeloYears lets consumers go beyond counting how many birthdays have passed to understanding how well they’re ageing. It does this by analyzing the length of their telomeres, which is a uniquely insightful measure of the capacity the cells have left to reproduce and thrive.
What Is A Telomere?
Telomerase, also called terminal transferase, is a ribonucleoprotein that adds a species-dependent telomere repeat sequence to the end of telomeres. Telomeres protect the end of the chromosome from DNA damage or from fusion with neighboring chromosomes.
How Much Does It Cost?
• The TeloYears test costs $89 and is available via https://www.teloyears.com. After an order is placed, a test kit is mailed directly to a customer’s doorstep. It includes everything needed to collect just one tiny drop of blood from a finger at home and return the sample to the company’s CLIA-certified laboratory. In two to three weeks, a TeloYears test report arrives that reveals the customer’s:
• Average telomere length and how it compares (on a percentile basis) to others the same age and gender.
• Age in TeloYears, which is calculated as the actual age of a typical man or woman whose telomere length is similar. One’s age in TeloYears can be older or younger than their actual age.
TeloYears results over time by highlighting the difference in actual age and age in TeloYears each time a test is submitted.
About TeloYears
• TeloYears is a simple genetic test that reveals the cellular age encoded in people’s DNA so they can know how well they’re aging. Using just one drop of blood from a finger, consumers can discover their age in TeloYears, which can be older or younger than their actual age.
Knowing one’s age in TeloYears is important because it is a simple yet comprehensive indicator of overall cellular wellness. Years of clinical data support the link between telomeres and the aging process, and many studies have been published on the role of telomere length in numerous age-related diseases. A key advantage of telomere length is that it can change over time, unlike other parts of your DNA. So TeloYears can be more actionable than other genetic tests. TeloYears results can be used to set a baseline, then improve and track lifestyle choices including diet, exercise or stress management. The self-knowledge gained from TeloYears can be powerful motivation to achieve healthy aging and for some an affirmation of an already active lifestyle.
