Acupuncture for Arthritis

Arthritis is an inflammation, pain and swelling of the joints that can cause great discomfort.

In Chinese medicine they say that there are several external causes of arthritis

cold, heat and dampness. This is why certain people feel the temperature drop and their arthritis flairs up in winter when the damp and cold are intense. Some flair up in the heat of the summer

The best treatment for arthritis is to advise food that is harmful and food that can help. Avoid all acid foods for osteoarthritis so refrain from having pickles tomatoes potatoes red meat and citrus fruits 

I am also qualified in giving Chinese herbs. Some are in the form of pills that reduce inflammation and also deal with hot damp and cold joints will help. Moxibustion is also used. You can read more about it here. 

Strengthening the general energy of the person is important.
