I have had pain in my thumbs for the last 4 years, but they have gotten really sore in the last year. There is swelling in the thumb joints, I couldn't lift pans in the kitchen, buttons were a problem along with other fine motor control actions and it was getting worse. I didn't want to go on pills, so I tried a medicated cream, glucosamine, ibuprofen, Tylenol and oil from an aroma therapy shop (it worked better then the medicated one!). I heard about LHS from my daughter-in-law who knew that I was having problems with my thumbs. Now, after 11 treatments I am not taking glucosamine, Tylenol or ibuprofen, I am just using the aroma therapy oil and ice if I have had a long busy day. I am able to do buttons up again, work in the kitchen, lift frying pans and fine motor control skills are easier. I am very happy with my treatment here, the staff is very friendly, informative and encouraging. I would recommend this treatment to people with osteoarthritis.
