“As treatments in medicine become more and more complex, the
answer may be something simpler.” (1)
Wow. Simpler just may be an answer when it comes
to pain relief for some Richmond back pain sufferers. Chronic pain is
one condition that necessitates some relief. (Listen in to a PODCAST with a doctor and his patient about chronic pain and how chiropractic helps.) Natural substances may be the simpler approach for some
Richmond chronic pain, back pain, neck pain, arm pain and leg pain
sufferers. Johnson Chiropractic is prepared
to assist Richmond chiropractic care patients investigate
if this may be workable for them.
CURCUMIN
Curcumin is surely one natural
treatment that most all Richmond pain patients have read
about in the news. As a natural anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving herb, it’s shown
to be rather effective for for treating
chronic pain conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease,
and cancers like colon, stomach, lung, breast and skin. Even Alzheimer’s
patients find some relief with curcumin. (1) Osteoarthritis
patients reportedly respond well to curcumin, too, as
osteoarthritis is a chronic inflammatory degenerative process that
Johnson Chiropractic witnesses often in Richmond chiropractic
practice. (2)
OTHER ANTI-INFLAMMATORY HERBS
Herbs like Urtica dioica (stinging nettle), Boswellia
serrata (frankincense), Equisetum arvense (horsetail), Allium sativum (garlic),
and Apium graveolens (celery and marshworts) are written
to be anti-inflammatory and analgesic for pain patients including
patients dealing with chronic musculoskeletal pain which
Johnson Chiropractic sees a lot! They reduce pain
and enhance mobility for chronic pain patients. One study blended
all of these plus vitamin B1 and found that patients responded
well. (3) Another report shares that fish oil, curcumin,
white willow bark, boswellia serrata, green tea, maritime pine bark,
Resveratrol, cat’s claw, and Capsaicin are other anti-inflammatory natural
agents are helpful in decreasing inflammation and
pain. (4) Johnson Chiropractic works with Richmond
chiropractic patients to determine just the proper
mix of natural agents like these that are
effective for them and their Richmond pain.
