Orlando, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/15/2015 -- Arthritis is affecting millions of people from around the world. Due to the pain and discomfort it brings, patients resort to natural alternatives in addition to pain relief drugs. One of the best ways to choose the right supplements is to see an herbalist.
The Arthritis Foundation has provided some guidelines on how to find an herbalist. It can be extremely difficult to figure out whether or not herbal medicine's claims and benefits are true. Some tips from experts can be extremely helpful to patients.
"Patients can research and still feel doubtful about the supplements they are eyeing. Herbalists can significantly help them make the right buying decision, because they have been trained extensively in herbal supplements and medicines," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
According to The Arthritis Foundation, there are several ways to choose an herbalist. One is to find an herbalist that has been licensed in the patient's state. There can be many different certifications and training programs available to complementary medicine practitioners, and many are receiving training in the practice and usage of natural medicines.
There are some specialties to look for and they include one that is a member of the National Institute of Medical Herbalists, registered herbalist at the American Herbalists Guild and fellow at the National Institute of Medical Herbalists.
The organization also stated that patients can choose a registered or licensed acupuncturist, a diplomat of Chinese herbology, a naturopathic physician and a medical doctor or pharmacist. There are other factors to consider in choosing an herbalist. Patients should see to it that the herbalist asks about factors such as environmental quality, diet, social situation and their work in the first few visits.
It is a wise move to ask help from herbalists, especially for individuals who rely on herbal supplements. NSAIDs are pain relief drugs that are extremely popular nowadays; but along with their therapeutic benefits, they also have side affects. The side effects caused by drugs have encouraged many arthritis patients to use natural supplements such as curcumin.
Since there are quite a number of companies present in the market today, experts suggest that patients take precautions in purchasing a curcumin supplement product. They need to find reputable herbal companies to get their supplements from. If they do resort to the help of herbalists, they should take time in finding the right one. Doing all of these things can significantly increase their chances of finding a supplement that can help them achieve pain relief and improved mobility (http://amztk.com/prvbcu).
