HOW TO NATURALLY IMPROVE JOINT HEALTH
Eventually, we will all experience joint pain. Through age, injury, or even illness, most of us will develop some discomfort or decrease in flexibility in our joints.
However, there are things you can do to safeguard your joint health, and address pain when it does strike!
Today, we’re sharing our best tips on improving joint health at home, reducing joint pain, improving mobility, and giving you the facts on the common causes of joint pain.
WHAT CAUSES JOINT PAIN?
BURSITIS
Bursitis occurs when the fluid-filled sacs (bursae) in your joints become inflamed. This can occur with infection, overuse, and forms of arthritis. It’s often accompanied by pain, swelling, and the joint may feel warm.
TENDINITIS
Tendons are the flexible bands of tissue that connect bone and muscle. So the pain you’re feeling in your joint could be an inflamed tendon (tendonitits). This can reduce your range of motion and is usually caused by overuse.
GOUT
Gout is a specific form of inflammatory arthritis. It occurs when a buildup of uric acid in your body gets deposited in a joint – usually the big toe joint. “Gout attacks” are extremely painful and difficult to treat.

IT’S EASY TO GET STUCK IN OLD WAYS OF LIVING. IT’S TIME TO MAKE ROOM FOR THE NEW WAYS OF HEALING.
JOINT HEALTH MULTI
This Well Theory multi contains high doses of natural anti-inflammatories like Turmeric, Ginger, and PEA.
This combination of ingredients is a gamechanger for helping reduce inflammation, swelling, and pain in joints – and reducing stress on surrounding nerves.
Tart Cherry Extract
A supplement that Dr. Warner suggests for her patients regularly is Tart Cherry Extract. This mild supplement is an alternative to NSAIDs, because it works with the same anti-inflammatory enzymes without the side effects. These 1,500mg capsules help you get the benefits of tart cherries, but without the sugars and calories.
Arthritis Gummy
Our unique surgeon-formulated Arthritis Support Gummies are packed with highly anti-inflammatory ingredients that work together to reduce inflammation and pain while improving recovery and range of motion for those that suffer from arthritic conditions.
HOW TO NATURALLY REDUCE JOINT PAIN
AT WELL THEORY, OUR GOAL IS TO HELP YOU CURATE A LIFE LIVED WELL – IN A LASTING, HOLISTIC WAY.
1. EXERCISE
If your joint pain isn’t caused by overuse, exercise can help you retain and regain strength and function. Walking, swimming, or other low-impact exercises can help restore flexibility in the connective tissues surrounding joints and build stabilizing muscles that prevent future injury.
2. HEALTHY WEIGHT LOSS
When you’re overweight, this puts excess strain on your joints. The joints of the lower body, including the knees and hips are particularly impacted, which can be dangerous as you age. Steady weight loss with dietary changes and an increase in exercise can help reduce this strain.
3. PHYSICAL THERAPY
Physical therapy is a must for those with persistent joint pain. Our physical therapists can assist you with targeting the correct muscle groups to exercise, help improve mobility through therapeutic massage, stretching techniques, etc., and help you determine if other treatments are needed.

Well Theory: Founded To Support Your Health Goals
Dr. Warner founded Well Theory according to her beliefs about functional medicine, or functional wellness,
verses conventional medicine.
Take Charge Of Your Health With Well Theory
Conventional medicine often overlooks holistic, long-term lifestyle changes in favor of prescribing heavy pharmaceuticals, recommending harsh and invasive treatments like surgeries, and more in an attempt to stop pain or disease as it occurs.
Find Wellness Alternatives That Work – For You.
I think we all know that conventional and modern medicine is reactionary and piecemeal, whereas good medicine should be proactive and encompass the whole of you and your body’s systems.
How We Support You On Your Wellness Journey:
