What You Need to Know About Menopausal Arthritis to Break Free, the author presents a natural, self-healing plan for addressing the joint aches and pains so widely experienced by women at and after menopause. In this comprehensive book, cutting-edge research is presented that provides the basis for natural healing. Unique exercises are also presented that are specifically designed to alleviate and to prevent menopausal arthritis. Although the joint aches and pains accompanying menopause are often thought of as being simply a form of osteoarthritis (viewed as a wear and tear disease of aging), the author shows you why current research demonstrates otherwise. Learn how your metabolism at menopause, and hormones such as leptin, are highly involved in fostering joint aches and pains. Learn, too, why inflammation is intricately a part of menopausal arthritis. Discover psychological factors that are associated with arthritis, and how emotions may affect arthritis pain. Finally, learn how to heal naturally through diet, exercises, weight loss, lifestyle changes, external healing, and stress-reduction techniques. Innovative, original, and insightful, this book will help you free yourself of joint pain at and after menopause.
