Helpful Alternatives to Alleviate Joint Pain

Joint pain is a very common problem, especially in weight-bearing joints like the hips and knees. These joints take a great deal of punishment every day, absorbing the shock of your footfalls as you walk, run or jump, and carrying much of the weight when you lift, lug and carry. Given the stress they are placed under throughout the typical day, it's no surprise that knee and hip injury are common issues, as are chronic joint problems like knee or hip arthritis. Alternatives to alleviate joint pain range from medication and exercise to complementary medical practices and, in severe cases, joint replacement surgery.
