Most treatments are unsatisfactory, and <strong>medicines have side effects that are more painful to deal with<\/strong> than the original cause of pain.<\/p>\n<p>Many patients now turn to natural remedies, which have given them more acceptable results. What are these natural remedies you can try and combine to <strong>give you better pain control and quality of life<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Taking Herbal Remedies<\/h2>\n<p>Two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3995208\/\">topical herbal remedies<\/a> were found to help in chronic back pains:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cayenne<\/strong> or <strong>capsaicin<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>A combination of <strong>wintergreen<\/strong> <strong>oil<\/strong> and <strong>peppermint<\/strong> <strong>oil<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Researchers believe these herbs are\u00a0<strong>powerful local stimulants and desensitize the patient to pain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/26462366\"><strong>Celery seed<\/strong> and its related extracts<\/a> also <strong>helped in managing arthritis<\/strong>. On top of its analgesic action, it also helps control inflammation and reduce gastric irritation caused by taking pain relievers.<\/p>\n<p>An additional benefit includes the lack of toxic effect. And unlike other dietary supplements that are metabolized in the liver and affect the metabolism of other drugs, it does not have this effect.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Eating an Anti-Inflammatory Diet<\/h2>\n<p>Inflammation is part and parcel of most chronic pains. Many dietary interventions are being explored, and some have relieved patients of chronic pain. Notable of which are the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mdedge.com\/familymedicine\/article\/132202\/pain\/chronic-pain-how-approach-these-3-common-conditions\/page\/0\/2\">plant-based diet and intake of turmeric<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Intake of colorful, nonstarchy vegetables provides a rich source of polyphenols. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in the diet can also reduce the expression of inflammatory genes according to one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/26400429\">blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Implementing Relaxation Techniques<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Laughter<\/strong> is indeed one of the best medicines that have no tag price. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/28536272\">In a study<\/a> where participants laughed for 30 minutes during a social laughter session, the level of naturally-produced opioids in the body increased compared to the baseline level.<\/p>\n<p>In another <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/28961631\">study<\/a>, the use of <strong>Mindful Meditation<\/strong> helped in managing the psychological effects of chronic pain, such as depression and quality of life.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Applying Heat<\/h2>\n<p>One of the <a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1111\/j.1365-2648.2010.05316.x\">more common and effective strategies<\/a>\u00a0patients use to self-manage chronic low back pain is the application of heat like <strong>warm packs, hot baths\/steam, and infrared lamps<\/strong>. It can reduce pain\/disability for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Implementing Complementary Health Approaches<\/h2>\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/27594189\">evidence-based evaluation of complementary health approaches for pain management in the United States<\/a> was conducted and revealed the following results:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Acupuncture<\/strong> and <strong>Yoga<\/strong> helped in <strong>managing back pain<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Acupuncture<\/strong> and <strong>Tai Chi<\/strong> for o<strong>steoarthritis of the knee<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Massage therapy<\/strong> for <strong>neck pain<\/strong> with adequate doses and for short term benefit<\/li>\n<li><strong>Relaxation techniques<\/strong> for <strong>severe headaches and migraines<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As with any chronic condition, doctors must manage the chronic pain in a holistic way beginning with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A complete history<\/li>\n<li>A physical exam<\/li>\n<li>Diagnostic testing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There is a primary mechanism for pain and secondary factors that contribute to its persistence and aggravation.<\/p>\n<h2>We Can Help<\/h2>\n<p>At Rose Canyon Health and Wellness, <strong>we don\u2019t just treat your pain, but we treat you as a whole person<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>We look at the overall picture and determine what contributes to your pain before we come up with any treatment plan.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/en\/cayenne-peppers-red-peppers-2779832\/\">Image attribution<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chronic pain can sometimes be frustrating to manage for both patient and health care provider.
