Tips To Reduce Back Pain

I suffered over a year with intense back pain, the kind that radiates up your neck and down into your legs. Not only was it difficult to sleep restfully and exercise, it also wore me out emotionally on a consistent basis. I found myself becoming so irritable and wiped out by the end of the day, and run-of-the-mill pain medications only made the pain duller and left me feeling out of it. I wanted more than a mask, I wanted to be at my best physically and have energy again. At this point I began researching, talking to naturopathic doctors, chiropractors, and testing dozens of methods to see what worked best. As someone who’s been in constant pain for a year, I’d like to share with you the most effective natural pain relievers I’ve found thus far.

Essential Oils

There are oils for every kind of pain imaginable, especially muscle tension. They have healing properties, are completely opioid-free, can be bought online, and even the U.S. National Library of Medicine admits there is sufficient evidence based on peer-reviewed studies, that essential oils have positive effects on those afflicted with pain, dementia, sleep troubles, and depression. If you decide to buy essential oils, please invest in a book from that company which lists the recommended uses for specific oils, it will be worth it in the long run, especially if you have pain in multiple areas.

Formula 303

During deep sleep, your body heals itself, rest is the most critical key to health that many adults brush off. It doesn’t matter how many doctor appointments or dietary changes you make if you aren’t allowing your body to repair its’ cells and generate new ones. With that said, this herbal supplement taken orally helps alleviate muscle spasms, pain, tension, and relaxes your body to help you​ ​sleep​ ​deeper​ ​and​ ​longer​.

Yoga

For many years doctors insisted yoga worked only as a placebo and had no physical benefits, only emotional. We know now that the stretches and breathing techniques used in yoga benefit our inner and outer bodily functions. Science no longer stands against restorative yoga, but alongside it. Our bodies were meant to self-heal in many cases, we just need to learn how to help ourselves. Chronic pain can be relieved when yoga is regularly practiced.

 Dietary Changes

As much as people hate the idea of changing what they eat, it’s crucial to consider when what goes in your mouth directly affects your body on a daily basis. Science has proven “comfort food” is addictive for many people, especially those under stress constantly, and those who are in pain often. Obviously eating high sugar, processed, greasy foods are a no-no when trying to heal yourself, but it gets more in-depth than that. Your body craves carbs and sugary foods when you’re hurting thanks to Cortisol, a hormone your body creates as a reaction to unpleasant and physically damaging occurrences. psychological addiction to food is just as powerful, sadly.
What’s interesting is our bodies naturally crave what we are intolerant to, for example, those who are lactose intolerant may want cheese often, and those who are gluten sensitive might crave bread and pasta. When you become mindful of how you feel a couple of hours to a day after eating a certain food, you may begin to cut that particular substance out of your meals if it contributes to feeling more tired, you feel tenser if you notice swelling or your allergies get worse.

Massages & Chiropractic Visits

Some insurance companies allow you to see massage therapists in chiropractic offices, and bill it under physical therapy. Though extensive physical therapy is definitely a route to check out if the pain is making daily chores and responsibilities difficult, massages are an excellent way to ease your discomfort and allow you to move with more flexibility and rest better afterward, they are best for muscle issues and pain. Chiropractors are best for nerve and bone pain, it can also affect your muscles but requires more invasive manipulation and stimulation of the pained area than massages or physical therapy.

Pain Relieving Creams

There are many brands that can help relieve discomfort temporarily, however, MYONATURAL repairs your damaged tissue and aids in recovery, as well as providing long-lasting pain relief, and it costs about the same as other natural pain relief creams. Unlike most other creams, MYONATURAL offers a 30-day money back guarantee if you don’t feel significant positive results, so there isn’t risk in trying it out, and even offer extremely inexpensive sample packets.

Hopefully, these tips help you to understand your needs and wants, and how you can heal yourself without negative side effects, never-ending doctor appointments, and expensive medications. You are designed to be at your best all the time, and you’re capable of it, so try to experience the joys of pain-free activities and feel at your most agile, strong, and energized daily. Your body will thank you.
