Arthritis and Chinese Medicine: Natural Relief for Joint Pain
Millions of people live with the pain and stiffness of arthritis, but relief doesn’t always have to come from pharmaceuticals. Arthritis and Chinese medicine form a powerful combination for those seeking natural, long-term solutions.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views arthritis as a manifestation of blocked energy and blood in the joints, often due to external factors like wind, cold, or dampness invading the body. Treatment focuses on improving circulation, reducing inflammation, and correcting underlying imbalances in the body’s systems.
At Phases Chinese Medicine Clinic, acupuncture is often combined with moxibustion, herbal medicine, and gentle movement therapy to ease arthritis symptoms. These treatments not only reduce joint pain and swelling but also support the immune system and slow the progression of degeneration.
If you're exploring alternatives to NSAIDs or corticosteroids, arthritis and Chinese medicine offer an integrative path toward sustainable relief and improved quality of life.
