Declare War on Inflammation

There's not a day that goes by in my physio practice when the word inflammation doesn't echo off the walls. We feel it flare with every injury, and we worry, but it's actually working to heal our tissues. Sometimes it binds us up a little too effectively, and that old injury remains slightly stiff forever after. We feel it more when we're cold or sick, even more during menopause, and more still when a joint is so worn out it just won't heal. Most of us expect a bit of that as we age. But what about when it becomes our go-to too soon? When every morning the fingers and feet need a little workout before we reach for the coffee? What should we do then?
