There are a lot of benefits in taking regular exercise in our increasingly sedentary world.
Exercise can improve heart function and circulation and promote stronger bones and muscles.
It also promotes a 'feel good' factor and can take the edge off mild depression. But minor injuries and sprains are all too common and not just in competitive contact sports. The advantage of homoeopathic remedies over conventional medicine is that homoeopathy can speed up and aid healing as well as reducing pain and swelling. Analgesics such as aspirin, although masking pain, do not speed healing. Corticosteroid creams and injections, used to reduce inflammation, can be dangerous when used too frequently or for too long.
