Conditions

Thinking of starting your journey with Alternaleaf? We go into a bit more detail on certain conditions we’re able to support below.

Back Pain

This common physical complaint affects millions worldwide. According to the NHS, back pain is the leading cause of disability in the UK, affecting about 11% of the population and significantly impacting many people's quality of life.

Fibromyalgia

This common chronic condition causes widespread pain all over the body. Symptoms can suddenly improve, then get worse, and this unpredictability, as well as an unknown cause, can negatively impact day-to-day life.

Arthritis

This is when the joints become inflamed, causing pain. There are lots of different types of arthritis, but two of the most common types are osteoarthritis followed by rheumatoid arthritis.

Cancer Related Symptoms

Cancer treatment can come with some unpleasant side effects. But did you know there’s some research that suggests alternative treatment can potentially be used alongside things like chemotherapy and radiation, to ease some of their symptoms. For example neuropathic pain (nerve pain), nausea, inflammation, anxiety, and even improve appetite.

Crohn’s Disease

Crohn’s Disease is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation in the digestive tract. This lifelong condition can flare-up at any time, with symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhoea, fatigue, weight loss, and reduced appetite. And this can massively affect overall quality of life.

Ulcerative Colitis

Ulcerative Colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes inflammation and ulcers in the colon and rectum. This long-term condition can flare-up at any time, with symptoms like diarrhoea, abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, fatigue, and weight loss. And this can massively affect overall quality of life.
