What Is Rheumatoid Arthritis?

Rheumatoid Arthritis Is An Inflammatory Disease

Rheumatoid arthritis may cause pain and swelling in the joints. Your
hands and feet are most likely to be affected. It is also likely to affect
more than one joint and is often worse in the morning until the affected
joints warm up.

Rheumatoid arthritis affects about 440,000 people in Australia. It occurs
when too many immune cells in the body move into damaged tissue,
release toxins and worsens local inflammation, thus causing pain.

Australian researchers at the Garvin Institute of Medical Research in
Sydney are working to find a cure for this debilitating disease, or at least,
relief of its symptoms.

While it could take between eight to ten years of research and millions of
dollars before results may be achieved there are effective, soothing and
natural treatments available that offer hope to those living with
debilitating disease right now.

Far Infrared Supports and Therapy Gloves are proving to be a highly
effective treatment for inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid
arthritis.

Far Infrared body bands and supports can improve the quality of life for
those people living with rheumatoid arthritis.


The Latest Research Suggests Glucosamine is no better
than placebo for Hip Arthritis Pain Relief

A two-year study involving patients suffering arthritis of the hip suggests
that glucosamine offers no clinically useful effect on arthritis pain
reduction, function, or disease progression.

In their 2008 report, Dr. Rianne Rozendaal and research team at the
Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, found
glucosamine (dose:1500 milligrams daily) had no significant effect on
pain reduction, mobility, stiffness, use of pain medication, or control of
hip arthritis.

Despite many studies, there is no evidence that glucosamine is an
effective treatment for arthritis. Thermal therapy garments using far
infrared technology are proving to be an effective arthritis treatment, and
unlike glucosamine, are suitable for those who are allergic to seafood
products. FIR therapy garments are also suitable for pain sufferers who
cannot tolerate the preservatives in cortisone medications.

Heat-Retaining, Far Infrared Reflective Knee Body Band
Eases Arthritis Pain

A report published in the journal, ''Arthritis and Rheumatism'' by Dr.
Steven Mazzuca of Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis
has found heat-retaining Body Bands worn over arthritic knees is
effective in reducing joint pain and stiffness in patients with
osteoarthritis of the knee.

Arthritis sufferers given the heat-retaining sleeve reported up to 25
percent decrease in their score on a standard osteoarthritis index.  The
researchers concluded from this study that the outcome shows that the
FIR heat-retaining knee support "merits further scientific investigation."
