1. Massage
Massage therapy helps relieve joint pain by improving circulation and soothing inflammation. In fact, several studies indicate that regular massage can improve pain, stiffness and range of motion in the affected joint.
To massage the affected area, use warm Oil like Coconut, Olive, Mustard, Castor or Garlic Oil and apply gentle pressure while massaging.
2. Hot and Cold Compresses
Alternating Hot and Cold compresses can also help ease joint pain. Heat therapy helps decrease pain, increase blood flow and relax sore muscles and joints. Cold therapy reduces inflammation and numbs the areas around the affected joint.
- Wrap both compresses in separate towels before using them. They should not be applied directly to the skin.
- Place the hot compress on the affected area for about three minutes.
- Remove the compress and immediately put a cold compress in its place for about one minute.
- Repeat the process for 15 to 20 minutes a few times daily until you get relief.
Note: Do not use heat therapy if the affected area is red, hot and irritated. Do not use cold therapy if you have circulatory problems.
3. Fenugreek
Fenugreek is a popular home remedy for joint pain due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It is particularly beneficial for those suffering from arthritis.
- Swallow one teaspoon of finely ground Fenugreek seeds followed by a glass of lukewarm water. Do this daily in the morning until you get positive results.
- Alternatively, you can simply soak one teaspoon of fenugreek seeds in water overnight and eat them the next morning.
4. Turmeric
Turmeric is an excellent Ayurvedic remedy for joint pain. It contains an active ingredient called curcumin with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
In a 2009 study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, researchers compared the effectiveness of this compound to Ibuprofen and found that Curcumin was as effective as Ibuprofen for pain relief in patients with knee Osteoarthritis.
- Mix one teaspoon of Turmeric powder and a little Honey in a glass of warm Milk. Drink it daily, at least for a few days.
- Another option is to take 250 to 500 mg Turmeric capsules three times daily until you are satisfied with the results.
Note: Talk to your doctor before including either of these remedies in your regular routine. Turmeric may interfere with certain medications, such as blood thinners, and may worsen gallbladder problems.
5. Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple Cider Vinegar helps reduce joint pain by eliminating accumulated toxins from the joints and connective tissues. Due to its alkalizing effect, it is particularly beneficial for those suffering from Arthritis. Plus, it is rich in Minerals like Magnesium, Calcium, Potassium and Phosphorus.
- Mix one to three teaspoons of organic Apple Cider Vinegar and a little Honey in a cup of warm water. Drink this solution two or three times a day, preferably before meals. You can continue this simple treatment on a regular basis because, in addition to helping with joint pain, it is good for your overall health.
- You can also massage the affected area with a mixture of one tablespoon each of Apple Cider Vinegar and Olive Oil. Do this daily until your joint pain is gone.
6. Cayenne
Cayenne Pepper contains a compound called Capsaicin with natural Analgesic or pain-relieving properties. In a 2010 study published in the Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand, researchers found that applying gel containing 0.0125 percent capsaicin helped relieve mild to moderate pain in women suffering from knee osteoarthritis.
- Slightly heat one-half cup of Coconut Oil. Mix in two tablespoons of Cayenne Pepper powder. Apply it on the affected area, leave it on for 20 minutes and then rinse it off. Do this a few times a day until you get relief from the pain.
- Alternatively, you can use a capsaicin cream topically on the affected area daily.
Note: Cayenne may initially cause a burning sensation. Do not apply it on open skin or wounds.
7. Epsom Salt(Rock Salt)
Epsom Salt baths facilitate easy absorption of Magnesium through the skin. Joint pain is often associated with low levels of Magnesium. Moreover, Magnesium helps reduce inflammation and aids in detoxification of cells.
- Mix two cups of Epsom Salt in warm bath water.
- Soak in it for about 20 minutes.
- Repeat three times a week until you get relief from your joint pain.
9. Ginger
Ginger is an excellent natural remedy for muscle and joint pain, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties. Researchers studied its effects on Osteoarthritis patients with knee pain and saw encouraging results.
- Drink ginger tea, or include fresh Ginger root or dried Ginger powder in your daily diet. To prepare Ginger Tea, cut up a small piece of ginger root, boil it in a cup of water for 10 minutes and strain it. To improve the taste, you can sweeten it with Honey and Lemon.
- Another option is to mix equal amounts of Ginger, Turmeric and Fenugreek powder. Take one teaspoon of this mixture daily in the morning and evening until you are satisfied with the results.
NOTE:- The best Home Remedy for joint pains is to prepare Oil and massage it on the joints.
