Sometimes what modern man considered the "old ways" of healing have
a way of coming round to be known as the "new way".

Such is the case with Ayurvedic Medicine Treatments for Arthritis.
Based on ancient Brahmin Indian treatments 3,000 to 4,000 years old,
this holistic approach to helping sufferers cope with arthritis is
enjoying a re-found popularity. The World Health Organization agrees
Ayurvedic treatment is a useful traditional health science.

As with other holistic systems of healing, Ayurveda recognizes that all
people are unique, and thus even though they may evince the same
outward symptoms, the path to their healing differs.

This means the remedy for your arthritis pains and suffering is
different than those of your neighbor or friend.

Several recent studies in the United States, India and elsewhere have
confirmed Ayurvedic treatments as a means to natural arthritic pain
relief.

The American College of Rheumatology conducted a double-blind test
trial of 90 people with osteoarthritis. The study show 50 percent of
the patients who took a combination of tumeric, frankincense
(Boswellia) ginger and ashwagandha had significant improvements with
pain relief as well as mobility. In contrast, only 20 percent of their
placebo group reported any arthritis pain relief.

In another double-blind study of 182 people suffering from rheumatoid
arthritis, the use of the same anti-inflammatory herbs brought about
"marked improvement" in pain relief, reduction of stiffness and the
severity of swollen joints and brought improvement in their overall
ability to function.

A study in India considered the results of the combining of
frankincense, tumeric, zinc and ashwagandha as natural arthritic pain
relief. (Though the herbs have some medicinal powers on their own for
the treatment of arthritis and other joint pain, Ayurvedic medicine has
found combining them for better results.)

In the 1991 study, 42 osteoarthritis sufferers who were treated with
the Ayurveda herbs in concert, showed "a significant reduction in
pain and disability".

And although researchers say it can take up to a month for Ayurveda
herb usage to produce positive results, the effects of the herb use for
arthritis pain relief can last for several years without the need to
increase dosage!

To help you heal without the addition of more medication, which may
bring with them own complications, requires more than popping yet
another pill. It requires attention to the mind and body. Both
medically-trained physicians and Ayurvedic practitioners agree a
holistic approach to the treatment of Arthritis is apt to bring about
the best and longest-lasting results.

To help assist your natural arthritis pain relief, in addition to
Ayurvedic treatments, it's also imperative to work at improving your
lifestyle habits and practices. Here are some examples:

*Add meditation and occasional fasting to your Ayurvedic routine
*Exercise often - but avoid those that cause you pain. Start and
progress slowly, but do it daily. *Reduce caffeine intake
*Don't' smoke. If you do, quit - if necessary, recall American
humorist Mark Twain's advice, "Habit is habit, and not to be flung
out of the window...but coaxed downstairs a step at a time."
*Reduce your stress and anxiety using simple breathing techniques and
physical exercise.

Your arthritis can be managed through natural pain relief by using
ayurvedic treatment. You won't know until you try. Why suffer any
longer?
