I have severe arthritis
in lower back and in both legs [ and I ] am presently taking
propoxy for pain. I just had a bone density test which suggested
I have some osteoporosis. My doctor knows this info, but has
not prescribed a thing.

Capsicum red pepper
in an ointment has been proven to block pain receptors. Walgreens
carries a o.o7% which is very hot indeed. Glucosomine chondroitin
I do not know if I spelled it right) has been shown to preserve
joint space through x-ray studies. Good nutrition and avoiding
refined foods help. Seeing a good Acupuncturist, Alternative
MD, Naturopath, Chiropractor(Who also works with herbals and
homeopathics) goes a long way. Of course exercise produces endorphins
in the body which also help. Ginger helps reduce inflammation.
Prime rose oil, Flaxseed oil, Vit E, Vit C, Soy products have
phyto estrogens which help if you are deficient in estrogen.
I have a "Computron" in my office which is miraculous
in determining the path to follow in herbs and homeopathic medicines.
It is "Investigational " here in this country, but
is used in Germany quite a lot.

Arthritis is linked with the immune system.
The only times have personally seen brilliant results was with
a Chinese nutritional immunology line by Dr Chen of Brigham Young.
It is called e-excel.
The other instances were with micro current
frequency. I think the manufacturer is out of Oregon.

If someone has arthritis and
knows of a horse chestnut tree in his/her area, Get them. Cut
the brown seeds into four and put them in a jar. Buy a Vodka
or Whiskey (any strong alcoholic beverage without sugar). Cover
the horse chestnuts and a little more, because they expand. Put
the jar for 6 weeks in a sunny window. You pour then the liquid
into another bottle and make poultices. You must be patient!!!.
It took me 6 weeks to get rid of my arthritic pain, but it never
came back.
My main specialty is Foot Reflexology. I love to teach. It is
a very powerful Therapy.

Dear Sharon,
Arthritis is often created through the build up of inorganic
minerals, poisons and toxins which have not been efficiently
eliminated from the body. These substances then settle into the
weakest areas of the body, hardening, creating immobility and
pain. It shouldn't be a question of what to do about the pain,
but what to do about the condition! This condition only has to
be lived with if you choose to. I would do a thorough cleansing
of the body, starting with the intestines, then liver, then urinary
system, ending with the blood. Regardless of pain, bring movement
into the area through activity and massage. You can also do external
applications or soaking in apple cider vinegar and water which
will help to break down the accumulated garbage. FIRST and foremost
you must be very conscious about what you are feeding your body.
Avoid processed foods, refined sugar, white flour and red meat.
Drink distilled water, which is H2O only and that is all we need.
It will help to flush out the garbage. Wishing you well!

As discussed by
others, all body pain needs to be addressed on the physical level
and the emotional level. For example, I had a client that was
in his 60's and was in a lot of body pain, and on medication.
After the first massage, he looked up with tears in his eyes.
He said, "This is the first time in 10 years it wasn't in
pain. The next 3 months I worked on him, to relax his body and
to open his "energy". As I worked on him, he was smiling
more, reduced almost all of his medications, started dating again,
and started working part-time again---for the fun of it all.
No, this wasn't a miracle. It was the willingness on his part
to get out of pain and to seek other sources.

Please consider this: Just as
our bodies are never disconnected from our breath, so they are
never disconnected from our spirits. Physical ills are never
"just" physical, but have emotional, psychological,
spiritual -even creative, and sexual-energetic dimensions. Taking
this more "wholistic" approach can greatly diminish
the kind, degree and duration of physical distress. -Ask me more
about this. See also "Stress Recess" article this month.

I am not familiar with propoxy,
what is it? You should of course be on omega 3 fatty acids as
well as other anti-inflammatory herbs such as boswella. Advanced
Energy Healing will help with the emotional, mental, and spiritual
components contributing to your arthritis. Often anger is a major
factor.
