The last session in the series; to many people muscles and joints will appear to be the most important. Looking after our muscles and joints in age requires attention to diet, specific forms of exercise as well as general exercise, massage and herbs. Anatomy and physiology will be explained for specific joints if requested. Different forms of pain relief will be explored and the practical session will include poultices, compresses, herb pillows, teas, ointments and creams. Many herbs are used in this area and we will look at those containing salicylates such as willow and meadowsweet, hormonal treatments including black cohosh; resins, and others, detailing which are suitable for home use and which should be prescribed.
