Most of us assume that once we are suffering from arthritis, we should take complete bed rest.
But this is not true at all:
You need to perform these easy juvenile rheumatoid arthritis treatment exercises which help in treating rheumatoid arthritis pain.
These exercises are highly beneficial for soothing joint stiffness and pain. Individuals who perform exercises suffer from less pain than those individuals who avoid indulging in activities.
Exercise helps in reducing the painful symptoms; it enhances the flexibility of the joints, improves joint functioning, and increases the range of motion of the joints. However, visit the doctor or physiotherapist for customized exercises to reduce joint pain.
Before we jump onto the exercises for rheumatoid arthritis, let’s dive in to find out what rheumatoid arthritis is? It is a type of autoimmune condition where the body attacks its joints. The situation results in inflammation of the joints, which leads to joint damage. Have a look at the best and easy exercises for treating rheumatoid arthritis pain:
Walking is a type of slow intensity exercise that helps in improved heart condition, enhances mood, and promotes joint health. Wear proper shoes and clothes to stay comfortable while walking. Keep yourself hydrated even if you are walking slowly. Try increasing the pace with time.
It is a low-impact workout that helps in muscle strengthening and joint stability. Try starting Pilates while using a mat and then switch to a machine for building muscle strength.
Rheumatoid arthritis enhances your risk of suffering from cardiovascular disorders. It is, therefore, essential to maintain a healthy heart. Riding bicycles can improve your heart fitness and improve the mobility of the joints; it reduces joint stiffness, enhances the range of motion, and strengthens the legs.
Water exercises offer support to the entire body allowing you to enjoy aerobics. It supports the joints and does not result in a massive impact. Water exercises like swimming or others increase the range of motion of the joints with improved flexibility; it strengthens the muscles and joints with enhanced aerobic conditioning. It reduces the stress over the joints, relaxes the tension in the joints.
The breathing techniques with gentle poses like yoga or Tai chi allow you to enhance the flexibility and balance of the body. It increases the range of motion and aids in reducing stress.
A resistance band can be used to train the body and build the muscles over time, especially in patients who have rheumatoid arthritis.
Perform stretches daily as it is beneficial and aids in improved flexibility of the joints with reduced stiffness. It increases the range of motion and improves the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Stretching involves the gentle and slow movements of the joints, especially the knee, elbow, hand, or shoulder joints. Warm up yourself by walking and move your arms while standing or sitting for around 4-5 minutes. Hold each stretch for about 15-20 seconds and then repeat each stretch.
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common form of arthritis in children. The child can’t move and run around normally due to joint pain and stiffness.
The children suffering from JIA should be encouraged to perform aerobic and high-intensity exercises for at least 60 minutes daily. This improves their movement and helps to ease the stiffness.
The high-intensity exercises should be done at least 3 times a week. Light exercises (aerobic exercises) include cycling, swimming, dancing, and walking.
So, we recommend the patients perform juvenile rheumatoid arthritis treatment exercises to relieve the symptoms, improves joint function, increases the flexibility of the joints, improves daily tasks, uplifts mood, and improves strength. Other than the exercises, there are various treatment options, mainly anti-inflammatory drugs which are prescribed by the doctor for treating rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis treatment in Pakistan includes the latest laser technology which is available at the clinics in vast cities of Pakistan. You can have laser treatment in Karachi, Peshawar, Islamabad or Rawalpindi.
BioFlex laser technology is the Canadian technology that’s a pain-free, non-invasive and non-toxic solution that helps in reducing the morning stiffness associated with rheumatoid arthritis. Bioflex Laser technology relieves the painful symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis which is an autoimmune disorder.
Various studies show the efficacy of laser therapy or rheumatoid arthritis. When a person completes the sessions of laser therapy, he or she feels the reduction in morning stiffness, reduced pain, no side effects, and long-lasting results. It improves the range of motion, improves flexibility, enhances the strength of the grip, and reduces swelling.
The laser diodes are super luminous where they emit red/ infrared light over the affected joints, penetrate deeper into the inflamed tissues, and work on the cellular level to reduce inflammation. The absorbed light transforms into energy, where it promotes the biological healing process. The entire process of photobiomodulation activates the Cytochrome C oxidase, which enhances the production of ATP that results in a cascade of reactions. The increased ATP promotes DNA synthesis, generates the formation of new cells, regenerates tissues, and promotes anti-inflammatory mediators with collagen formation.
All these cellular effects result in the reduction of pain and inflammation with improved joint functioning. So, get yourself connected with the team members of BioFlex in Pakistan and have yourself treated in the outstanding clinics at three central locations:
