Arthritis - Have You Tried Replenex or Essential Oils?

(Please read our disclaimer)
According to the Centers for Disease Control over 52 million adults have been diagnosed with one of the 100 different forms of arthritis. Symptoms include pain, aching, stiffness, and inflammation in or around the joints. Some forms of arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, can affect multiple organs and cause widespread symptoms

Osteoarthritis, the most common form of arthritis, involves the wear and tear of cartilage over a bone where it meets a joint. Early morning stiffness that lasts a short while is a common symptom of osteoarthritis, while inflammatory arthritis causes longer-lasting pain and causes joints to swell and feel warm. See this article about understanding arthritis for more information.
Replenex

Patented Replenex and Replenex Extra Strength help rebuild, cushion and strengthen joint cartilage. Besides 1500mg of research-recommended glucosamine HCI, Replenex formulas also contain ginger, green tea and bromelain which promote healthy joint function.

If you are over 50 years old, and are involved in moderate to strenuous activities, or are overweight, Replenex Extra Strength might be your best formula. It contains chondroitin, MSM, manganese and A.I. Blend for comfort. A.I. Blend is a patent-pending combination of six well-known anti-inflammatory herbs: Devil's claw, ginger root, aronia, turmeric root, angelica gigas root, and green tea extracts.

The Melaleuca Wellness Guide recommends Replenex for arthritis, athletic injuries, back pain, bursitis, carpal tunnel, chronic fatigue, eye, fibromyalgia, gout, lupus and osteoarthritis.
Healthy Weight

In many ways our weight greatly impacts our health. Losing weight reduces inflammation and pain. According to the Arthritis Foundation losing one pound of weight is like reducing four pounds of pressure off the knees.
Essential Oils

According to one study, using a blend of lavender, marjoram, eucalyptus, rosemary, and peppermint oils in carrier oil significantly lowered arthritis pain and depression.

In another study, moderate-to-severe knee pain was treated by massage with ginger and orange essential oils. There was improvement in function and reduced pain.
Try this blend:

In a dropper bottle mix together 2 teaspoon carrier oil, 3 drops eucalyptus oil, 3 drops rosemary oil, 3 drops lavender oil, 3 drops marjoram oil and 3 drops peppermint oil. Mix well and massage on affected area.
Pain-A-Trate

In addition to using Replenex to reduce inflammation, The Melaleuca Wellness Guide recommends a gentle massage with Pain-A-Trate.

Patented Extra-Strength Pain-A-Trate not only contains methyl salicylate and menthol, but also camphor which numbs pain and increases circulation, helping muscles heal. It also contains soothing, penetrating T36-C5 Melaleuca Oil.

Arthritis Success Stories

Before I learned about Melaleuca I had lots of pain in my knees and in my back. I worked as a teacher. My school had deep stairs in the front. To avoid some of the pain and the embarrassment not being able to walk right, I would come in through the back ways, where there were fewer stairs. My chiropractor took X-rays and told me that I had arthritis. He mentioned bone on bone in my knees and ordered a number of very painful shots right into my knees. It helped for a little while. However, the damage was large enough that I was granted disability. I got more and more into the Melaleuca products and tried different supplements. I was not always able to afford all the products I wanted. At one point I tried the Replenex extra strength. Within a week I had no more pain in my knees. I decided to get on the peak performance total. This was the best decision I ever made. Today I am walking and moving without pain. I even go to the movie theater and choose my seat high up. Thank you Melaleuca for such wonderful products. Oh, did I tell you I no longer need painful shots?

We love The Melaleuca Wellness Guide! I use it often for my girls and for our dogs! I have even passed along suggested information for horses! I often catch my 11-year-old reading it and she’ll say... “Hey Mom, did you know...” and she’ll continue with something about using our Pure oils or how we can prevent headaches. :)

I was first diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my knees 15 years ago at the age of 45. I used various brands of glucosamine and chondroitin and found some, but never complete, relief. Seven years ago, I started using the Replenex Extra Strength every day, and I now have no pain! I know it is the Replenex that makes the difference because if I stop it for a few days, I will again get sharp pains in my knees when I walk. I never want to be without my Replenex extra strength!

~ Charlene

Arthritis started to affect me 18 years ago, so when I met Melaleuca over 5 years ago, the one thing that prompted me to try the products was the fact that my friend was having pain relief from her arthritis. The Replenex Extra Strength soon took care of my pain. And now with Recover AI my joints and body are feeling so much better than they did 18 years ago. Melaleuca truly gives us a better quality of life in so many ways!

I am a cancer survivor and, because of the chemo, I suffer from neuropathy in my feet and hands. I would rub the peppermint and blue heat on my feet to help me sleep at night. I take Replenex Extra Strength every day to help with the pain in my legs and hands. I recommend Replenex to anyone who has joint problems for whatever reason.

~ Shirley

I developed advanced osteoarthritis and contacted my integrative medicine specialist. He recommended that I double my Replenex Extra Strength that I was already taking in my Peak Performance Pack and also to take turmeric capsules. Now I can use my hands once again, no pain. Sincerely,

~ Louise

Hi - I had some terrible joint inflammation as a result of chemotherapy. I got some steroid shots in my fingers and was hoping to avoid surgery. I have faithfully taken Replenex as part of my Peak Performance pack. Is it worth the money to be free of pain? Oh, YES IT IS! I have no more pain in my joints. I fractured my knee cap in a bad fall five years ago. It scarcely bothers me. I say you won't notice the difference if you take the supplements unless you stop. Being pain-free makes a huge difference in my life.
