Fighting Arthritis Without Drugs

By editor | February 6, 2008

Some of the multiple forms of arthritis certainly won’t cause you major problems. With moderate treatment and a few lifestyle changes you can often be up and about your business with little difficulty. Just as with many other common health problems, you take your medicine, or change your diet, or follow an exercise routine, and you get well.But some kinds of arthritis, especially the inflammatory types like rheumatoid arthritis, don’t follow this easygoing profile. As we’ve discussed, because every person is different, treatment that works well for one may not work for another. There’s often no quick fix. Rheumatoid arthritis generally requires varying medications, and few of them work immediately. Osteoarthritis, too, may require a certain amount of trial and error to find what medication works and what doesn’t. It can be a frustrating wait.

Fortunately, there are many effective ways to get a head start on your arthritis care and boost the effectiveness of your treatment without using medicine. Many of these methods are do-it-yourself techniques, and your active involvement makes all the difference. Here’s a look at non-drug treatments that can give you powerful relief and advice on a few that will just relieve you of your hard earned dollars.
