Collection: Reactive Arthritis

What is Reactive Arthritis?

Reactive arthritis is a type of inflammatory arthritis that occurs as a reaction to an infection—commonly in the urinary tract, intestines, or reproductive organs. It typically develops within a few weeks after an infection and leads to joint pain, swelling, and stiffness, especially in the lower limbs. It can also affect the eyes, skin, and urinary system.

Though symptoms may improve over time, natural support for joint and immune health is essential to ease discomfort, reduce flare-ups, and support long-term wellness.

Symptoms of Reactive Arthritis

1. Painful, swollen joints (often in the knees, ankles, or feet)
2. Joint stiffness, especially in the morning
3. Eye inflammation (conjunctivitis or uveitis)
4. Pain or burning during urination
5. Inflammation of tendons (e.g., Achilles tendon)
6. Skin rashes or mouth ulcers (in some cases)
7. General fatigue or weakness

Natural Support for Reactive Arthritis

To help reduce joint inflammation, support immune recovery, and improve oxygen flow for healing, our practitioners recommend:

1. CH68 ArthroCalm Tincture – A powerful herbal blend that targets joint inflammation, stiffness, and pain, helping to restore flexibility and comfort.
2. P01 Oxygen Drops Liquid – Enhances oxygen delivery to cells, supports detoxification, reduces inflammation, and boosts energy, promoting faster recovery and tissue repair after infection-related inflammation.

Natural Ways to Support Joint & Immune Health

1. Follow an anti-inflammatory diet – Include turmeric, ginger, green leafy vegetables, berries, and omega-3-rich foods.
2. Stretch and move gently – Low-impact activities like walking or yoga help maintain flexibility and reduce stiffness.
3. Apply warm compresses – Helps ease joint pain and relax tight muscles.
4. Stay hydrated – Flushes out toxins and keeps tissues well-lubricated.
5. Avoid inflammatory foods – Limit processed foods, sugar, alcohol, and refined carbohydrates.
6. Support gut health – A strong gut can prevent recurring infections that may trigger flare-ups.
7. Prioritize sleep and relaxation – Quality rest aids the immune system and tissue repair.

Note: While natural remedies offer gentle and effective support, severe or persistent symptoms of reactive arthritis should be evaluated by a healthcare provider, especially if additional systems like the eyes or heart are affected
