cynthia's blog: " Pain Relief Pack"

As our society continues to spend nearly all of its time sitting down, we are finding it more essential to relieve back pain. We waste hours in a commute to work, hours upon hours sitting in front of a desk. We are stuck in front of a computer at work or home and after that finish it all off with sitting in front of the television. After that we go to bed eventually and wake up in the morning not feeling very refreshed or renewed, our backs still hurting. That's the time we decide we need to find a way to relieve back pain.

There are many solutions that we have tried to come up with using various expensive chiropractors and physical therapy. There are in addition many treatments that require surgery or harsh chemicals/medicines. These may not be necessary and could, in some cases end up causing further harm than good. This is especially true with prescriptions that are often prescribed to fight the pain. Not only can they allow harmful side effects, they can become addicting causing an entirely different realm of problems.

If you would like to avoid any of the above, there could be some solutions that will relieve back pain and resolve it naturally.

One point that you might want to consider is a pain relieving cream with the naturally occurring ingredient Capsaicin. This is something that is found in chili peppers and is what makes them hot to eat. This same heat is what will as well bring you comfort. It will sting a little but this is natural and is a sign that it is working. This type of cream can be found in most drug stores simply and for a good price. Look for a concentration of around 0.025% more or less.

Using ice packs and heating packs are also a terrific way to relieve back pain. Most people will resort to the heating pack but will not remember the ice pack. While the heating pad is more comfortable than the ice pack, the ice pack does a great job of reducing the swelling and inflammation. If the pain is recent (whether due to injury or overuse), use ice packs for 10 minutes each hour for the first day and after that 3 times per day for the next two days. Then switch to heat to relax the muscles that might be tense and relieve back pain. Using heat too soon could make the swelling and inflammation worse.

A great item that you can buy to help relieve back pain is an exercise ball. You could in fact use it as a chair and it will help you with good posture and give you a platform on which to do intermittent exercises and stretches. One of the most beneficial stretches to relieve back pain using an exercise ball is to drape yourself over the ball, facing it. Wrap yourself around it with your knees and feet on the floor. As you are draped over the ball, shrug your shoulders pushing them forward.

Before spending a lot of money on invasive, and potentially harmful methods, try to relieve back pain naturally.
