Almost everyone is familiar with it: pain in the knee, shoulder, hip, wrist or ankle. For many people who suffer from joint pain in the course of their lives, it is temporary pain. This can be caused, for example, by an incorrect sleeping position, cold draughts or incorrect movement. As a rule, this pain can be managed very well with the help of pain ointments or physiotherapy.
With the right treatment, joint pain should disappear within a few weeks. If this is not the case, you should definitely get to the bottom of the cause. Many people who suffer from joint pain resort to painkillers in order to function in everyday life and at work. I have already pointed out the dangers of this pain treatment in another blog article (Insert LINK to other blog article „Gold implants for joint pain: the low-risk alternative to painkillers“).
Many sufferers shy away from seeing a specialist because they are afraid of surgery. This is often associated with a general anaesthetic, pain and long aftercare or rehabilitation. Some orthopaedic surgeons tend to be quick to advise surgery - and it should not be forgotten that joint operations and the use of artificial joints are a source of income for clinics that should not be underestimated. It is therefore not surprising that a considerable number of joint operations are actually performed unnecessarily.
Pain is an important warning signal from the body to alert us to injuries or disorders. That's why pain is basically a good thing, because it allows us to react directly and protect our body from damage. We have pain receptors everywhere in the body. They react to heat, e.g. in the case of burns, to cold, to inflammation, to strong blows, injuries and much more. The sensory cells of the pain receptors perceive both internal and external stimuli and are our most important ally when it comes to staying healthy.
Without pain, we would not recognise many illnesses and injuries - with the result that we might even die from them. So pain is not a bad thing per se, it is deliberately unpleasant so that we cannot ignore its message.
But that's not all. If acute pain is not treated, it often becomes chronic, i.e. permanent. Long-lasting or severe pain leads to the formation of a pain memory. This learnt pain is still perceived even if the actual cause no longer exists. It is possible to erase the learnt pain and thus the pain memory.
However, it is much easier to tackle joint pain directly. If the cause cannot be treated by physiotherapy or by protecting the joint - this is often the case with arthritis or arthrosis, for example - gold therapy is the optimal method of pain relief.
The advantages of treating pain with the help of fine gold are many and convincing:
More than 750 patients have already been able to return to a pain-free, fulfilling and more active life with the help of gold therapy.
