Re: Advanced Shoulder Arthritis - How To Deal With It?

I know y'all think I am crazy, but I still cannot express enough how much acupuncture has helped with my joint issues. Recommend highly!

Re: Advanced Shoulder Arthritis - How To Deal With It?

JMPHO - I had MAJOR restriction in movement and pain and trouble sleeping because of shoulder and elbow issues. Some mild impingement sydrome and MAJOR tendonitis/bursitis issues. They wanted to prescribe narcotic pain reliever and heavy duty anti-inflammatory Rx. I was already taking so much OTC NSAIDS, I didn't want to torture my GI with stronger ones. I cannot function with narcotics, and wanted the problem fixed!

I found an accupunturist and had about 4 treatments and I am doing great! Not that this is the answer for every problem, but think it is worth consideration for decreasing inflammation especially.

Good luck!
