Pain medications could cause health problems if not used properly. Knowing strategies to help manage pain without drugs will help you enjoy activities more. For arthritis pain, it is important to keep moving as much as you are able and consider physiotherapy and weight loss. Tai Chi is a great activity choice for arthritis sufferers! Massage, acupuncture, and bathing may also be helpful ways to relieve pain. Profound decreases in pain can be achieved by taking measures to bring spirituality and relaxation into your daily routine. Stay social and keep the music playing!
