Can Music Be A Natural Remedy For Arthritis?
This past weekend I was talking to some friends I hadn’t seen for a few years and through our conversation we somehow started talking about health issues. One of the things that came up through this conversation was one of my friends mother had been quite ill with rheumatoid arthritis.
If you know anything about this disease you probably understand the pain that can be experienced with rheumatoid arthritis. Betty, my friends mom, was tired of the medications she was taking as there was a lot of side effects from these medications
.
Betty was at bingo one evening and one of her bingo pals was telling her about their sister going to a music healer. This particular healer was a music therapist who had several years experience in dealing with pain from all types of injuries and diseases. He has built his business on music being a Natural Remedy for Arthritis.
Figuring she had nothing to lose Betty decided to visit this particular music healer to see what he could do to help her control her pain. Now, you have to know Betty she is a very blunt and direct person, but she has a heart of gold.
During her consultation, Betty put the therapist through a ton of questions and queries as she wanted to know what this guy really knew. Betty was making sure she had a good feeling about this guy.
The music therapist asked Betty to close her eyes for a moment, which although she was hesitant, she did as he asked. Once she did this he started to play a soothing sound of music, a mixture of classical music and some other type of music which she couldn’t identify.
At first it was somewhat uncomfortable for her to believe this healing music would actually work for her but over the hour she was there, it was a great experience for her. She felt calmer than she has ever felt in a long time.
Betty asked the music therapist if she could take a copy of the music home with her as she felt so good. It wasn’t that he didn’t want her to have a copy but he wanted to monitor her situation for a few more therapies to make sure he recommended the proper strategy for her situation.
After a few more visits he did manage to provide her with a unique strategy to treat her pain from the rheumatoid arthritis. It was not a cure but it did allow Betty to deal with this type of arthritis that had taken over her daily living.
Over the next few months she was feeling so much better and was able to focus her attention to more positive areas of her life as she was no longer overcome by pain. The music really was working to be a natural remedy for Arthritis which had interrupted her lifestyle at such a young age
.
Now as much as music certainly helps to deal with the pain and alleviate the body from stress, to help reduce the joint inflammation, there are natural herbs and health supplements to help as another way to compliment the natural remedy for arthritis
