1. Ayurvedic Therapies for Arthritis Relief 

Panchakarma refers to cleansing Ayurvedic therapy, which is said to eliminate toxins from the body and, in turn, help improve joint pain. With Ayurveda, private cases of arthritis have been treated from as far back as the 1400s. Ayurvedic medicine also makes sure that the pain and swelling experienced in the joints can be reduced by smearing a particular herbal oil on the affected areas.

The therapy helps reduce muscle aches and improves blood circulation. Cold treatment performs two functions: reducing swelling and minimising pain. The solution to arthritis pain relief exists in alternating between cold and hot compression treatments. 

How to Use It: On the hurt joints, put a hot water bottle on them for 15 minutes and then an ice pack for 10 minutes.

Several herbs are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and can treat arthritis naturally. One of the best herbs is Turmeric. It is said that It contains curcumin, which helps reduce inflammation. Drink turmeric milk daily or consume herbal supplements after consulting a naturopathy expert. Other than this, ginger also plays a very significant role in curing the disease as its ingredient acts as a natural pain reliever. Boswellia, also called Indian Frankincense, helps reduce the stiffness of the joint.

Yoga is one of the most essential exercises that an individual must practice in it’s daily life. It not only makes your body flexible but also enhances the positive and mental health of an individual. Practising yoga reduces stiffness and increases muscle strength. Regular mobility helps maintain the health of the joints as well as helps prevent the joints from becoming stiff. We recommend you practice various Yoyasnas such as Child’s Pose (Balasana), Warrior Pose and Cat-Cow Stretch. These exercises will not only reduce your joint pain but will also enhance the stretch of muscles and ligaments.
