For me, I have found that a combination of a number of CAM's has helped my pain levels. I have a plan from my Exercise Therapist that combines stretching, balance, resistance and weights that I complete at least every 2-days; I try to go for a 30-40 minute walk each day; I have a massage once a month; I have Acupuncture once a month; and I have a Chiropractic adjustment once a month. This combination has allowed me to stop taking Panadol Osteo and Mobic. I have Sciatica (from the OA in my spine) so have remained on a daily low dose of Endep (Amitriptyline). I also have found that the Root Cause Protocol (RCP) has helped my pain levels immensely - increasing Magnesium and getting Minerals and Vitamins from food sources (nuts, seeds, berries, grains, Cod Liver Oil etc.) instead of synthetic sources has been key.
My brother, who is quite young, had developed a disease like arthritis. Which is called Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis. As a result of which there is constant pain, stiffness and swelling in his joints. Then one day someone told them about the RA Care Pack of Planet Ayurveda and my uncle made him use this pack daily and my brother got cured with the use of that pack.
I have SJIA in all joints I have to have 3 tablets and 2 needles everyday I was diagnosed at 2 I always had trouble at PE because the PE teacher said that only adults get arthritis it's a daily struggle but all you can do is be strong
