Acupuncture yes
I suggest you try massage, acupuncture and herbs (perhaps King herbs) to help relieve your rheumatoid arthritis. It will take multiple sessions.
Yes. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.
Yes, acupuncture can help rheumatoid arthritis by decreasing inflammation, promoting healthy circulation, and regulating hormones.

I don't know about acupressure, but acupuncture can help some with arthritis. I have found, though, that eliminating gluten from the diet is essential to stop the arthritis and put it into remission.
I do acupuncture which is different from acupressure, but yes it can definitely help with the pain from rheumatoid arthritis
Acupressure fir sure have benefits for pain management. It is important to stimulate point with an object like a pen ( sharp but not to brake the skin) Also you need to know which set of points to stimulate. To add benefits consider taking CBD oil. Make sure to consult Certified Medical Cannabis provider. All the best
Hi there and thank you for the question! RA is a chronic inflammatory condition and there has been a recent article published citing that acupuncture can be helpful. I would advise to get a consult with a licensed professional acupuncturist who works with inflammatory conditions.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

I WOULD RECOMMEND ACUPUNCTURE, WHICH HAS A STRONGER EFFECT. ALSO, TAKING AN ANTI-INFLAMMATORY SUCH AS THERACUMIN WOULD BE GOOD.
Yes, acupuncture can help with rheumatoid arthritis.
It can help with the pain. It will not fix the Arthritis, but can stop the pain cycle or feeling of discomfort due to the arthritis.
I don't know if acupressure will help with rheumatoid arthritis, I rarely use it. Acupuncture, on the other hand, is often an excellent treatment choice for all forms of arthritis. Believe it or not, acupressure is not as comfortable as acupuncture. In my experience, acupressure's treatment effect comes on more slowly and doesn't last nearly as long as acupuncture's.
