Strontium is an element on the Periodic Table, which is very similar to Calcium. It is known to be easily absorbed by the gut and incorporated into bone and tooth enamel much in the same way as Calcium. When in the form Strontium Ranelate (Strontium Salt), it is known to increase both bone formation and … Continue reading Strontium Ranelate Supplementation in Osteoarthritis Treatment:

Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy works just like it sounds. An intermittent magnetic pulse is directed though injured tissue, such as an arthritic knee joint. This electromagnetic field has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory effects as well as regenerative potential in damaged tissue. The therapy was first introduced in the 1970s as a treatment for … Continue reading Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) More Beneficial Than Placebo for Knee Osteoarthritis:
