Integrative Medicine for Arthritis

Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common form of arthritic disease and affects a large proportion of the population over 40 years of age. Rheumatoid arthritis is also common but has a different set of underlying causes. Dr. Shawn M. Carney, a naturopathic physician, will discuss how the different forms of arthritis develop, where they are commonly found, and how they effect us. Dr. Carney will also discuss the most common avenues of osteoarthritis management such as nutritional supplementation, exercise, and physical therapies.
