“As treatments in medicine become more and more complex, the
answer may be something simpler.” (1)
Hum. Simpler just may be an answer when it comes
to pain relief for some Vancouver back pain sufferers. Chronic pain is
one condition that needs some relief. (Listen in to a PODCAST with a doctor and his patient about chronic pain and how chiropractic helps.) Natural substances may offer a simpler approach for some
Vancouver chronic pain, back pain, neck pain, arm pain and leg pain
sufferers. Vancouver Spine Care Centre is ready
to assist Vancouver chiropractic care patients investigate
if this may be possible for them.
CURCUMIN
Curcumin is surely one natural
treatment that many Vancouver pain patients have heard
about in the news. As a natural anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving herb, it is shown
to be quite useful in 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 are reported to respond well to curcumin, too, as
osteoarthritis is a chronic inflammatory degenerative process that
Vancouver Spine Care Centre sees often in Vancouver 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 found
to be anti-inflammatory and analgesic for pain patients including
patients dealing with chronic musculoskeletal pain which
Vancouver Spine Care Centre treats daily! They decrease pain
and enhance mobility for chronic pain patients. One study mixed
all of these plus vitamin B1 and discovered that patients responded
well. (3) Another report states 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) Vancouver Spine Care Centre investigates with Vancouver
chiropractic patients to find just the proper
mix of natural agents like these that are
effective for them and their Vancouver pain.
