Osteoarthritis Pain Relief

The National Institute of Health claims that acupuncture may provide pain relief and improved function for people with osteoarthritis of the knee.  

Others suggest applying heat, cold or both, yoga, massage and TENS, a non-invasion method to reduce pain called transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation.

Interesting blog. Some very good original content. But no mention anywhere of Generation Jones in a blog about people over 50?! One of the advantages of a blog is its ability to stay up-to-date with current trends.

As many nationally influential voices have repeatedly noted, Obama is part of Generation Jones, born 1954-1965, between the Boomers and Generation X. Google Generation Jones, and you'll see it’s gotten a ton of media attention, and many top commentators from many top publications and networks (Washington Post, Time magazine, NBC, Newsweek, ABC, etc.) specifically use this term to describe Obama.

Great op-ed on Obama as the first Generation Jones President in USA TODAY a couple of weeks ago:
