Pain Relief for Osteoarthritis submitted by Jean Chamberlain, Modern Massage Works

PAIN RELIEF FOR OSTEOARTHRITIS

Many people suffer with pain and symptoms of osteoarthritis and some would say it’s just a process of aging. While there is not a “cure” for osteoarthritis, its symptoms and pain can be managed and progression can be slowed down. The purpose of treating osteoarthritis as early as possible is to decrease joint pain and stiffness, improve mobility and the quality of life.

Treatments for people with osteoarthritis include:
  • Physical therapy
  • Surgery Medications
  • Hot and Cold packs
  • Creams on joints
  • Supportive medical devices (braces, splints, canes, wraps)
  • Pain management techniques (meditation, acupuncture, massage, etc.)
  • Exercise (especially low-impact activities)
  • Weight loss

This article will deal with massage therapy treatment options and how and why they work.

Different things can cause pain and decrease range of motion and mobility in people with osteoarthritis. There are changes in body structures that occur such as the subchondral bone layer, the joint capsule, joint margins, synovium (the smooth lining of joints) tendons (connect muscle to bone), ligaments (connect bone to bone) and bursa (sacs that help muscles and tendons glide over bones.)

When in pain, we often change and/or limit our patterns of movement that can then lead to additional issues. For example, changes in gait can lead to problems, including postural issues, uneven muscle strength, injuries to other parts of the body and increased issues with balance and subsequent fall injuries.

Studies and clinical research have shown that massage does help reduce pain and improve function for those with osteoarthritis. One study on the benefits of massage therapy focused on the optimal dose of massage for osteoarthritis of the knee. This study was published in the journal PLUS One. The study spanned 24 weeks and found that pain intensity was reduced mostly in the participants receiving a once a week 60-minute massage.

​Many people with osteoarthritis of the spine, hip and knee will also experience low back pain, either from the arthritis itself or from a modified gait or other forms of compensatory movement to avoid pain. There are quite a few studies that show that massage is an effective treatment for back and neck pain in and of itself, and that the pain relief can last for months.

​One other benefit of massage therapy in the treatment of osteoarthritis is that it is a nonpharmacologic treatment. As such, it does not interfere with other medications or have any of the harmful side effects that many drugs have. It may even reduce the need or dosage for other pain relieving medications. In addition, it can reduce stress in general and improve sleep quality by increasing comfort levels.

My name is Hailey Garcia and I am from New Jersey. My herpes virus turned to war after 2 years of living with it. I have tried different medical procedures to cure my herpes but to no avail. Most people think herpes is only a minor skin irritation of which herpes has long term effects on health and passes through the bloodstream and can be easily contracted through sexual intercourse. I knew I had herpes from the first day I started feeling itchy in my pubic area and the pain was very unbearable. I couldn't stand it anymore. After 2 years of trying other means to get rid of it, I had to contact Doctor Odunga to help me with a permanent cure. I saw his email and whats-app number from a testimony I read online from a lady who was also helped by him in curing infertility problems, I had faith and contacted him. He assured me of his work and I ordered his herbal medicine. Within 5 days, I didn't feel any pain anymore and within 2 weeks, my skin was all cleared and smooth. I am very grateful to you sir and I write this testimony as others have done to bring those having faith to you sir. If you have herpes or other similar disease and you want it cured, kindly contact Doctor Odunga, Whats-App (wa.me/+2348167159012) OR Email [email protected]

EFFECTIVE LOVE SPELL TO GET EX HUSBAND/BOYFRIEND OR EX WIFE/GIRLFRIEND AND CURE HERPES AND INFERTILITY THAT WORKS WITHIN 24 HOURS.

Contact Doctor Odunga at [email protected] OR Whats App/CALL +2348167159012

I got my ex husband back to me and also got fertile and gave birth to twin girls after 12 years of marriage.
When I came online last year, I saw a testimony about Doctor Odunga and how he has been helping people with marriage issues and I decided to contact him. We spoke on email at [email protected] and later he gave me his Whats-App number which is +2348167159012. He assured me he would help me get my ex husband back after 3 years of no contact. Doctor Odunga is the best spell caster I must say. My husband called me after 24 hours of contact. The third day, I received natural herbs for fertility and after using it, I became fertile and conceived. My husband and I reconnected, had sex and I was pregnant. Presently I am happy to say I am the mother of twin girls and this is ALL THANKS TO DOCTOR ODUNGA. I came online to say this: If you need help, I believe you are saved with this man.

Contact his email at [email protected]

OR Whats App/Call +2348167159012 and you too will give a testimony too to help others
