I wouldn't doubt it. Archaeologists and anthropologists are discovering that ancient Gladiators used to adhere to a similar plant based diet, and had "tea" made with plant ash which likely elevated their strontium levels to promote healing.

I've only heard of strontium in relation to bone health, is it often thought to be otherwise related to healing or injury recovery?

The article doesn't state what variety of arthritis he was dealing with, but strontium has shown to be useful for osteoarthritis. Once the inflammation from that is down, the other inflammations mentioned would improve too.
