This past summer was quite humid and damp here in New England. Most people and dogs who have any arthritic tendencies seemed to feel it more than usual. For both pets and humans one of the easiest and safe remedies for the stiffness and pain from arthritis is to take an Omega 3 oil supplement. Flax seeds or oil, Salmon oil or Cod Liver oil all come in liquid or capsule form.
Omega 3 oils lubricate the entire body, especially those creaky joints that seem to feel the brunt of damp weather. They also help skin, hair, hormonal balance and lubricate the intestines. Studies have shown that they also improve moods.
Acupuncture and herbal supplements can also relieve the pain and symptoms of arthritis and other ailments of the joints and bones. For more info on how acupuncture can help you please visit Four Paws Acupuncture
