Do you have a stiff neck? Do you have joint pain? Putting it down to growing older? These symptoms may be caused by arthritis.
Some types of arthritis are caused by lifestyle choices and heredity, while others are caused by chronic sickness and are categorized as autoimmune diseases. The good news is that most of the pain associated with arthritis may be minimized or removed with adequate treatment and lifestyle adjustments.
Here are some of the best home remedies to relieve pain caused by arthritis.
Swimming
Swim, perform water aerobics, or simply take a swim in the pool! Swimming improves your cardiovascular fitness while also strengthening your muscles. As you gain strength, you reduce the amount of stress on your joints and bones.
Exercise
Attend a yoga or Tai Chi lesson as a couple. Participating in some form of physical activity with another person is mutually beneficial and can help relieve arthritis pain.
If you’re new to yoga, look for a beginner’s class with an experienced professional who is aware of your condition. They’ll be able to lead you into asanas (postures) that accommodate your limits. Keep your eyes on your mat and be extremely careful with each movement when practicing yoga.
You will be astonished by the rewards that these exercises can offer you if you have patience and time. If you are unsure where to start, feel free to join us in one of our many group fitness classes!
Workouts using Resistance Bands
These are beginner-friendly stretching products that are ideal for at-home or gym workouts. Working with bands allows you to test your muscles in ways you wouldn’t otherwise be able to. Learning to work with bands has several advantages, including strengthening the back, improving posture, and increasing hip joint and shoulder flexibility.
Walking
It is the most natural and, for many, the simplest method to get started with a workout program. Simply slip on your most comfy sneakers and go! Begin where you are, as with any sort of exercise. You may start with a gold star day by taking a fifteen-minute stroll around the block twice. The goal is to repeat the process tomorrow and the next day. Gradually increase your distance and time spent outside. It increases Vitamin D intake, strengthens bones, improves cardiovascular health, and promotes flexibility and overall well-being.
Gardening
There is always something that has to be done to maintain and care for what is growing, whether you are tending pots on a patio or have a real garden. Besides, gardening is a good exercise for your body to get some cardiovascular activity, burn off calories, and be flexible.
Cooking
One of the loveliest things to do is to get together with your loved one and prepare a dinner together. When you have joint discomfort in your hands, it might be tough to prepare food and chop items. Assume the role of a sous chef and prepare all of the items. Make enough to freeze the leftovers, and then sit down to a beautiful supper together after it’s all done.
