For Those Who Suffer With Joint Pain; Take A Swim

New Swim Spa CoversYou’ve heard all about it, but you never knew it could happen to you; joint pain. Until you’ve suffered from this kind of pain, you might not be able to understand what it’s like to live with. The Connection

Joints are the connections between your bones, such as your knees, elbows, and knuckles, to name a few. Joint pain is more common than you might think. One survey shows that up to 1/3 of adults have had joint pain in the last 30 days. There are several reasons why you might start to experience joint pain:

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
  • Bursitis
  • Gout
  • Strains
  • Sprains
  • Other injuries

And the pain can be anywhere from your head to your toes. The most common area where joint pain occurs is in the knee, followed by the shoulder, and then the hip. The pain can be tricky. It can last for weeks or months, and it can be mildly irritating or totally debilitating. As you age, you’ll find that painful joints are more common.

There are many different way to help reduce the pain and inflammation in your joints. Some of the most common forms include:

    • Medication. Aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen sodium, and Celebrex can treat joint pain. For debilitating pain, your doctor might prescribe opioid medication, muscle relaxers, and even antidepressants.
    • Creams and Injections. Topical creams can block pain receptors while steroid injections can give a temporary relief.
    • Physical Therapy. You can work on strengthening the muscles around your joint through physical therapy.

Take The Pressure And The Weight Off

If you are overweight, losing a few pounds will help take unwanted pressure off your joints. The best form of exercise to achieve this? Swimming. Swimming allows you to use your joints without putting them under stress. And the buoyancy of the water can even relieve joint pressure. Plus, the warmth of the water can ease pain as well. So really, you cover many bases when you choose swimming as an option.

Own Your Own

Owning a swim spa at home is one of the best things that you can do for your health in general, but if you have joint pain or need to lose weight, it doesn’t get any better. Not only can you do range of motion exercises, you can do strengthening and aerobic movements as well. When you own a swim spa, you can choose the time of day when you work out or relax. You don’t need to drive anywhere or swim with strangers, which can encourage you to actually get out and get moving.
