Holistic ways to beat joint pain

Acupressure
This Chinese therapy is also called Shiatsu and uses finger pressure to release energy blockages in the body, promote the release of toxins, improve flexibility and circulation. In general, Acupressure is thought to relieve stress and promote relaxation in both the body and the mind. For joint pain sufferers, acupressure can promote circulation which goes a long way towards alleviating joint pain as toxins are less likely to build up in your joints.

Cynthia Dusseault

Cynthia Dusseault is a professional freelance writer with both a health and an education background. A former medical radiation technologist and elementary school teacher, she realized that no matter what she did, she was drawn to any task that involved writing, so she decided, over a decade ago, to write full-time. Since then, she has written for a variety of magazines and websites including Nursing PRN, National Review of Medicine, University Affairs, Your Health, Education Leaders Today, Today's Parent, Children's Playmate, WeightWatchers.ca and many more. She has written about topics such as asthma, genital herpes, circumcision, teleradiology, body art, learning disabilities and exercise trends, and she absolutely adores the fact that writing—particularly doing the research for the articles she writes—makes her a lifelong learner.
