3 Ways To Manage Back Pain Without Drugs
If you are suffering from back pain you know the only thing you want is to make it go away, however, many people want to find a solution that doesn’t involve the use of drug therapy. If you’ve been suffering with back pain for a long time and been to a million doctors and specialists you may think there just isn’t any other options.Here are 3 options you may not have heard of.
1. EFT
Emotionally Freedom Technique. This is a simple technique you can do alone, or with the help of an EFT therapist, on the phone or in person. It involves tapping on specific meridians in your body while thinking about and saying out loud what is bothering you. The reason why EFT works so well is there is the mind/body connection. The pain you are suffering in your back may have been caused by a fall or a car accident, but it may also be related to an emotional issue you are holding in your body. When you tap on that subject, or the back pain itself you release that energy and allow your back pain to be released with it. Yes, it sounds crazy ~ but it really works.
2. Kinesiology
This too can seem a little weird, but like EFT it really works. For kinesiology you will have to see a professional. Kinesiology is a type of chiropractic, but unlike the regular chiropractor the kinesiologist works on the muscles that holds your bones in place. They use bio feedback to tell them where and what needs to be worked on. Muscles tend to have some element of “memory” so you may find you don’t have to visit your kinesiologist as frequently as a regular chiropractor.
3. Inversion Therapy
This is something you can do on your own at home, although it would be wise to speak to a doctor before you do it. Inversion therapy means hanging upside down from a device called an inversion table. These tables are designed to safely and effectively hang you upside down giving your spine room to decompress. This decompression leads to a relief of pain in your back.
If you’re at your wits end and think there’s no other options left you might try one or all of the therapies suggested above. If you choose inversion therapy take a look at the Ironman Gravity 4000 inversion table. It’s a quality table and many people have successfully helped to manage back pain with it.
