We can hardly imagine what it is like to be a virtual prisoner in their own body, yet as many as 400,000 people in the UK alone are affected by this debilitating condition that reduces mobility with searing pain and swollen joints.  With the number of arthritis sufferers set to double by the year 2030, to a massive 17 million sufferers, it is not hard to imagine the strain on the already hard-hit health service.  Whether this applies to you, a member of your family or some of your clients, this webinar is packed full of information tailored to support people suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis.  By having the knowledge of the processes involved and how to optimise our diet and lifestyles, we can drastically diminish the symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis.  In this webinar, the renowned naturopathic nutritionist, Kirsten Chick, takes you through all aspects of RA, from the anatomy of the joints, how your adrenals and thyroid could also provide some answers to this condition and why calcification occurs in the joints.  This truly holistic view of how to treat Rheumatoid Arthritis will not only provide practical help with our diet, but also takes an inside look at the patterns revealed by the Chinese Five Elements, as well as the vital naturopathic techniques that can help ease the symptoms.
