Homeopathic Treatment of Arthritis
The treatment is especially dependent on the physical symptoms of the arthritis patient. Moreover a homeopath would work in harmony with someone who can help to resolve the underlying causes of emotional stress and pain in the patient. The problems are undeniably specific and there is no general rule that applies to all, however following are reasonable recommendations:
Aurum metallicum (metallic gold)
Similar to gold compounds used in antibiotic treatment of arthritis Aurum metallicum is a remedy for a variety of disturbances. It comes in a fine brown powdered form from a process called trituration. Trituration, which involves grinding down the powder and diluting it with milk sugars, is necessary because gold is not soluble in water or alcohol.
Aurum metallicum is especially prescribed to those arthritis patients who have pain in fingers and limbs during morning time and gets better as the day progresses
Rhus Toxicodendron (Rhus Tox)
It is taken from poison ivy, and is also known as snow rose. The leaves of the plant are used in the creation of the remedy for joint and muscle pain, rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis, low back pain and connective tissue disease.
Bryonia
It is produced from wild hops. The mother tincture is made from the roots of the plant. It is good to cure rheumatoid arthritis, physical trauma, tendonitis, connective tissue disease and low back pain
Calcarea carbonica (Calcarea ostrearum, oystershell)
Derived from the pure white portion of oyster shells, this homeopathic remedy has as its primary component the mineral calcium. Calcarea carbonica, therefore, is especially useful for those people suffering from osteoarthritis as calcium is essential in the formation and repair of bone tissue.
