Natural Pain Relief

To embrace natural pain relief implies that you are ready to take responsibility for yourself and more importantly, for your health. You have decided that the quick fix medication approach is no longer best for you. You have decided that you no longer want to place unknown substances into your body, with side effects which may affect the quality of your life at a later date.

By taking charge of your body and health, you have made a very important decision which will enhance the well being of your life. You have decided also to truly respect this body of yours and to demand from yourself a better quality of life and health. A better quality of life means disciplining yourself to do whatever it takes to improve your health. By improving your health you will obtain better sleep, have more energy during the day, playing more with your children, spending more time walking, playing sports, or just going out with your spouse. Your stress levels will decrease and your work and life performances will improve.

Natural Pain Relief

I will outline real life stories which will provide you with insight into how doing simple things will have a major impact on your health and natural pain relief. One of the first things that you should be aware of is the type of nutritional supplement that you take. Going to the health food or drug store to pick up supplements, should be done with a degree of due diligence. As an example, liquid supplement or capsules have less fillers and are more easily absorbed into the system. Getting healthy is no longer just what you eat, it has gone a step further and now addresses what you absorb. This is why regular, natural colon cleanses are so beneficial for your body and health. Some times, a simple change such as drinking 4-6 glasses of water daily, will go a long way to assisting with natural pain relief!

Headache

A patient I saw recently suffers with chronic headaches. She takes headache medication regularly, which causes some degree of constipation. After my consultation/examination, I asked her about her diet and whether she has ever done a natural colon cleanse. I recommended she begin to eat breakfast regularly, take liquid vitamin/minerals and do a colon cleanse. Within two weeks she began to experience natural pain relief. The headaches began to decrease in intensity and frequency. In four weeks, she had lost twelve pounds, no headaches, sleeping better and her energy levels increased. She mentioned how wonderful she felt. She was then recommended do undertake the Cervical Rehab Program to strengthen her neck muscles.

Weight Loss

A male patient who was about sixty pounds over weight, complained of chronic back pain. He was taking daily medication and advised by the Orthopeadic Surgeon that if things continued to get worse, surgery would be considered. X-rays showed some degree of disc degeneration, but my feeling was that his paunch was the main culprit. It was placing his back into an excessive lumbar curve and causing jamming of the joint. As he lived sixty miles away, it was impossible for him to come in more than once per week for laser treatment. I therefore recommended that he take liquid vitamin/minerals and do a natural colon cleanse. After a month of following my advice, he lost about 8 inches off his waist and mentioned that he was experiencing natural pain relief as the back pain was 50% less.

Rehab Program

A Back Rehab Program was advised to strengthen his low back and core muscles. The following two months he mentioned how much stronger his back felt, there was minor pain and his paunch was not very visible. Rehab Programs are necessary to return the muscles to their required strength. Returning strength to the muscles, helps them provides the proper balance and support for the injured or weak areas. New research shows that exercise boosts brain power by building new brain cells in a brain region linked with memory and memory loss. Also, that “resistance exercise for people 65 and older can actually reverse important aging effects on skeletal muscles, to the point where they work genetically like those found in people four decades younger.”  A Rehab Program for the cervical spine and one for the low back are so necessary because of the importance of these areas to the well being of the body. When you strengthen the cervical area, in addition to the above, you assist the body with balance and co-ordination. Strengthening the low back helps with your posture and ability to do all sports activities. The cervical and low back muscles are the key areas to strengthen for natural pain relief and for over all body improvement.

Nutrition

Good nutrition is necessary for health, healing of injured tissues and natural pain relief. When you are in pain, it is a stress to your body. Your body needs to be supported to deal with the pain and also the stress it causes. This pain relief must be achieved as soon as possible. The reason for this is, because the stress that the body is going through due to the pain, it contributes to other health issues. It raises your blood pressure, it affects sleep to name a few. But one of the more important things is that stress for any period of time cause the brain cell to die in certain parts of the brain. This contributes to other health conditions.  Nutrition for quick and effective natural pain relief is crucial in breaking this cycle.

By following these simple but effective steps, you too can achieve natural pain relief.
