Supportive Treatments
Some supportive therapies can help with rheumatoid arthritis. Physiotherapy might help you strengthen muscles and improve the level of fitness, thus allowing for more flexible joints. In addition, this treatment can be combined with TENS to apply small electrical pulses to the affected areas. This can be effective in numbing nerve endings and alleviating your pain. Another option is occupational therapy, which can provide advice and training to protect your tissues and joints at work and at home. You can also consider podiatry. This technique would provide some tips with your shoe insoles to support the joints and ease your pain. [9]
