In Pain? Acupuncture to the Rescue
Everyone at some point in their life will experience bodily pain.
Whether it's from gardening, a sports injury or a serious health condition, your next plan of action can shorten your length of recovery and significantly reduce your pain.
For example, in the case of back pain, 80 to 85 percent of people will experience back pain at some point.
Have you thought of acupuncture as a solution? Many people learn to just deal with the pain or cover it up by taking over-the-counter medications such as ibuprofen, analgesics or opt for prescription pain killers.
Sometimes these medications can help for acute pain, but over time can have other harmful side effects or result in addiction.
People usually seek acupuncture as a last resort.
They have had a MRI, physical therapy, abundance of drugs, cortisone shots, and even surgery - but are still living in pain.
Your first step in your plan of action is to realize you don't have to live in pain.
Your next step of action is to seek help from medical professionals that can treat you.
That means your local acupuncturist and/or chiropractor.
These professionals can perform exams, determine if MRIs are needed and treat the root of the problem instead of placing a band-aid on it.
From your health professional, gather recommendations and make small dietary changes to help you live pain free.
Did you know that a high intake of sugar suppresses your immune system and increases the inflammatory response in your body.
More inflammation means more pain! Furthermore, the pain your body experiences actually creates stress in your body.
And stress creates pain.
What a viscous cycle.
Acupuncture can reduce stress, relieve inflammation, help with sleep - which all of these things help with pain reduction.
So in your plan of action to live pain free, think of acupuncturefirst.
