Arthritis Knee Pain Relief - New Help For Arthritis Pain in the Knee - Nurse's Guide

You may or may not have heard of using acupuncture for arthritis knee pain but you may not be familiar with acupuncture you can do at home, which I'll explain later in this article. New studies are helping millions of arthritis sufferers who are still looking for pain relief. In these studies, a group of more than 500 people with osteoarthritis in the knee were either given acupuncture, fake acupuncture or attended meetings to learn about how to get arthritis pain relief from other sources.

The trial went on for about six months or so. It was discovered that acupuncture treatment was much more effective for about 33% of those who had acupuncture than those who didn't. Of those 33%, they showed about a 40% decrease in pain and about a 40% increase in functioning than those who had the other fake treatment with needles or just were learning to cope with pain relief who only had minimal improvement.

It's long believed that acupuncture causes the release of endorphins - our body's natural painkillers for pain relief. I'm sure you've heard about the benefits of laughter for also producing these endorphins to relieve pain.

And if you have arthritis in the knee and bad or severe knee pain you may surely benefit by having acupuncture treatments. However these can be expensive and oftentimes the treatments have to be repeated many times over.

So you can concentrate on relieving arthritis knee pain with laughter and one of a number of methods for endorphin-releasing techniques for relieving pain or you can use what many people are using and that is the home acupuncture technique.

Many people are using the technique to relieve pain not only for arthritis knee pain but from other types of pain as well. You can do this at home yourself and it's free. So it's not as costly or expensive as a series of acupuncture treatments. It's mentioned in the eBook "How To Stop, Diminish Or Control Your Pain Now!"

Also many people have used diet to relieve knee pain. So combined with diet you may finally get rid of your knee pain altogether. My diet change years ago to predominately raw fruits and veggies, nuts and seeds, completely got rid of my knee pain and is the best arthritis diet.

Even just adding lot of fruits and veggies to your current diet can make a big difference. If you're having severe knee pain now know there are home acupuncture techniques or treatments and other home remedies that can help relieve the pain or get rid of it altogether. You don't have to spend a lifetime dependent on drugs and painkillers with all their risks for arthritis pain relief.
