Herbal and Alternative Remedies for Joint Pain: Part 2

<!–adsense–>

Adding herbal supplements to your daily routine which are extremely high in a variety of nutrients is another recommended step for treating joint pain.

Taking alfalfa, kelp, or parsley each day, for instance, will give your body concentrated vegetables in a capsule form. These concentrated vegetables are extremely high in a wide variety of vitamins, minerals and trace essential elements.

White willow is an herbal remedy used to control pain and inflammation. This herb is actually what modern day aspirin was based on originally, and newer NSAIDs and anti-inflammatory drugs are based on it as well. It can be taken orally in pill form, or it can be mixed with aloe vera juice and rubbed onto the painful joints.

Burdock is an excellent herb that helps reduce the swelling of joints and knuckles. It also helps break down calcification and other types of bone deposits, which commonly cause many types of joint pain. Burdock also helps cleanse the lymphatic system, bladder and kidneys, and moves toxins out of the body. This herb is also high in niacin and Vitamin.

Comfrey will help relieve pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints. If the joint pain is caused by injuries, swelling and inflammation, comfrey will also help heal those issues. Just apply it externally to the affected areas.
