Arthritis herbs come as single herbs or as combination remedies. You'll find them not only in health-food stores, but frequently in pharmacies, supermarkets, and health clubs. Curative herbs are no longer a specialty item. Several of the largest American vitamin manufacturers are now making and distributing combinations that feature a wide variety of international herbs.
For Painful Knees
One of the best single herbs for painful knees I have found is yucca root, a relative of the century plant, native to the American Southwest. Many people eat the boiled root in place of potato, but a stronger dose is obtained form capsules. It contains saponin, a naturally occurring steroid.
The consistency of yucca root is slick, like soap, so that yucca capsules, taken internally make joints slip more easily and reduce selling. You can take handfuls of yucca capsules between meals throughout the day. Only you can find the dose that makes you feel comfortable: the manufacturer hasn't a clue about the severity of your pain. A dozen or more capsules, taken for two or three days, is often enough of the dosage to unlock painful knees. That frees chi to move. Then reduce the dose to a comfortable number. For example, 4 to 6 daily.
Combination Arthritis Remedies
American-made combination herbal remedies for arthritis often contain both cooling and warming herbs along with others that increase circulation and support hormone production, This put-it-all-together approach has become popular because Western consumers are not expected to differentiate their symptoms as Asians do. The wisdom in such a combination is that combining a variety of such hers can break apart stuck chi. These combinations are safe and recommended for long-term use, not acute attacks. As you will see, using Asian energetic principles, you can improve upon their approach.
It combines buckthorn bark and burdock root to help maintain hormone balance, along with many herbs such as yucca, parsley, slippery elm bark, and yarrow flower to treat pain, and alfalfa and cayenne pepper to supplement the nutrition. It presents a balanced diet of building and cleansing herbs necessary to ease sharp pain and swollen joints. This is a good remedy that covers many bases at once.
Using the genius of Asian medical principles, you can take such a baseline combination as this, and add a few other herbs to take its pain-relieving action to where it is most needed in the body. In other words, my herbal additions will make the baseline remedy work more specifically.

Strain the tea and keep it in the refrigerator when not in use. Drink 2 cups daily of the tea, along with a dose of your baseline remedy. If the combination of tea and pills becomes too laxative, reduce the tea to 1 cup daily.
