Arthritic and Rheumatic Pain
Homoeopathic remedies are a great help for
people who suffer from joint pain associate with
rheumatism and arthritis. There are many remedies to
choose from and the best results are obtained when
you pay careful attention to your particular problem
and select a remedy based on the symptom picture.
Attention to diet is extremely important with reduction
in the intake of acid forming foods. As much as possible
take whole foods to maximize the availability of vita-mins,
minerals and other important substances used by
the body to repair and maintain healthy joints. Include
herbs such as Dandelion, Sage and Nettle in your diet
for their healing properties as well as the abundant
supply of nutrients they contain.
The following remedies may help to relieve symp-toms
and stimulate healing however you may need
to consult a homoeopathic practitioner to choose the
correct remedy for a long lasting healing result:
Arnica: Suits muscular rheumatism from exposure to
cold, damp and after over-exertion. Limbs ache and
feel bruised and beaten. Worse from movement and
fear of being touched.
Arsenicum: Sciatic pain especially in elderly people.
Worse around midnight, restless, anxious and better from
warmth. Burning pain down the leg, cramping in calves.
Bellis perennis: Injuries and muscular soreness in tissues
deep in the body where pain remains despite Arnica.
Gardener’s backache from bending and stooping.
Bryonia: Stabbing pain which is much better from
staying very still, from pressure and lying on the painful
part. Lumbago. Pain worse from slightest movement. Ir-ritability.
Colocynthis: Shooting pain down the right leg.
Numb and weak. Worse cold.
Hypericum: Nerve damage. Sharp, shooting or tin-gling
pains. Injuries to the coccyx.
Ledum: Gouty rheumatism that starts in the lower
limbs and ascends. Stinging, tearing pains. Better cold
compresses.
Mag phos: Sharp, spasmodic pains. Relieved by pres-sure,
massage and warmth. Sciatica worse right leg.
Pulsatilla: Wandering and shifting rheumatic pains,
maybe in the hips, knees and other joints. Tearing,
drawing, jerking pains. Constantly changing symptoms.
Worse at night and from heat.
Rhus tox: Pain and stiffness from over-exertion, getting
wet while hot or being caught in cold damp weather.
Worse initially then better from continued movement.
Cramping, tearing sciatic pain, stiffness in lower back,
worse cold, damp and lying still.. Must move.
Ruta grav: Pain in ligaments and tendons, especially
where they meet the bone. Sciatica worse in bed at night,
the pain extends from the back to the hips and thighs.
TWouldn’t we all love to still be able to do star
jumps off the wall like this. However, sadly for
most of us, we find that as we age our joints begin to
loses flexibility and become stiff and at times painful.
Sports injuries, accidents, dietary indiscretions and sed-entary
lifestyle all take their toll on joint health.
This Winter newsletter focuses on homoeopathics
and general health tips to help you repair any past
damage and maintain healthy joints.
2. The Treatment of Sports Injuries
The treatment of accidents, trauma and sport related
injuries is very effective and satisfying using your homoeo-path
ic first aid remedies. We recommend that you keep
a small remedy kit in your sports bag and attend to injuries
promptly with indicated remedies to reduce the degree of
damage and promote rapid healing. The following rem-ed
ies are commonly needed:
Aconite: Shock, fear, fright and agitation.
Arnica: First remedy for any physical trauma; shock,
bruising, concussion, black eye, haemorrhage. Feels as if
‘sore and bruised’ and does not want to be touched.
Bellis perennis: Injuries to tissues deep in the body where
pain remains despite Arnica. Muscular soreness.
Bryonia: Joints red, hot and swollen. Pain much worse
for movement. Irritable and wants to keep very still. Often
needed after Arnica to help reduce bruising and swelling.
Hypericum: Nerve damage including lacerations, crushed
fingers or toes. Sharp shooting pains. Spinal damage.
Mag phos: Aches, pains, muscle spasms and cramps.
Rhus tox: Painful stiffness from overstrain or getting
wet while hot. Better from movement and worse after
lying or sitting.

ankles. Injuries where bones are close to the surface,
e.g. shin. Stiffness, pain and weakness in the joints.

weeks at a time. This allows you to see exactly which
ones if any are affecting you.

Joint Pain Flowers: Often we find that when there
is rigidity and stiffness in the joints this is also reflected

the mental, emotional level. The following may help: Use Rock water when there is rigidity
and hardening of physical structures. Agrimony is for
cheerful people who disguise their pain. Oak is bent
from one sided activity and over-exertion – especially
in older people.

Animal Success Stories
When Walter
was suddenly
unable to jump up onto
his favourite chair or
go up or down steps,
his owner Merran
thought he had pulled
a muscle. Indicated
remedies such as
Rhus tox, Mag phos
and Bryonia failed to
make much difference
and Walter became
more miserable. While
browsing through homeopathic books, Merran came
across Aesculus, a slipped disc remedy. It seemed to
fit the picture perfectly and a few doses had Wal back
to his old, happy, active self.
Joint Pain & Arthritis in Animals
with Dr Clare Middle
Animals too can suffer the rigors of growing old, like
stiffness and joint pain. There are several things that
you can do to minimise their discomfort.
Diet: The first step is to feed a natural diet for an ade-quate
intake of the nutrients required to support ligament
and bone repair (especially raw meat and raw bones).
Evidence suggests commercial pet foods are often over
or under supplied with minerals causing a imbalance det-rimental
to joint and bone health.
Supplements: The most important is a Glusosamine/
Chondoitin supplement, available from vets. The sec-ond
step is to add Vitamin C 500 - 2000mg per day
depending upon size. It is present in Wheat Germ oil,
or use capsules. Also important are additional Vita-min
A, D (in liver/kidneys or Cod Liver oil), but once
weekly is enough as Vitamin A can be overdosed.
Herbs: Alfalfa, as a herb or low potency homoeo-pathic,
is extremely rich in nutrients and alkalinizing,
improving the appetite and supporting the digestion
and joints by balancing the over-acid system. Devil’s
Claw, Yucca, Green-lipped Mussel and White Willow
Bark are good anti-inflammatory herbs. Garlic is also
important for the joints, as it contains selenium.
Homoeopathy: There are many remedies which
may be indicated and if you have limited success or
problems choosing then seek help from one of the
excellent books available or from a vet or practitio-ner
who specialises in Homoeopathy and alternative
therapies for animals. Acute symptoms with swelling,
redness, pain and possibly fever responds well to Bel-ladonna.
Rhus Tox suits inflammation, pain and stiffness
which is most apparent when the animal gets up after
a long rest. Once moving about it starts to loosen and
feel better. Bryonia symptoms are much worse from
movement, better from firm pressure and lying still. Sil-ica
6x is important in symptoms when the joint stiffness,
pain and distortion gets worse as the animal gets older
and can be given regularly with other indicated Tissue
Salts to support the joints and calcium metabolism.
General guidelines: In addition these animals ben-efit
from sleeping on a padded, flat bed, warmth and
non-weight bearing exercise (eg swimming). Physical
therapies such as acupuncture, trigger point stretches
(which owners can learn to do) and chiropractic/Bow-en
can often help significantly. It cannot be stressed
often enough how important a natural, raw food diet is
- and what a turnaround can be seen once a change
is made to this more nourishing food!
