Introduction
Arthritis affects millions of Australians, often causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. While conventional treatments remain the cornerstone of care, some patients are exploring whether alternative therapies could provide additional support.
The Daily Impact of Arthritis
From difficulty with simple tasks to ongoing discomfort, arthritis can affect independence and quality of life. For many, finding effective relief is an ongoing journey.
Why Patients Explore Alternative Therapy
Patients may turn to natural pathways because:
– They want holistic approaches.
– Standard treatments haven’t provided sufficient relief.
– They value the privacy and convenience of telehealth consultations.
The Telehealth Pathway
AusMedClinic provides an easy process:
1. Pre-qualification form.
2. Online consultation with a doctor.
3. E-script if appropriate.
4. Pharmacy dispensing under TGA regulations.
Lifestyle and Supportive Measures
Exercise programs, physiotherapy, weight management, and joint-friendly activities like swimming or yoga can also help improve mobility and comfort. These can complement any prescribed alternative pathway.
Important Considerations
Doctors make all suitability decisions. Alternative therapies are not guaranteed solutions and may not be appropriate for every patient.
