Have you been looking for a natural alternative to pain medication?

If so, you’ve come to the right place. The experts at Charmed FIR Mats discussed a couple of effective pain relief alternatives in our last blog, including our far infrared bio mats and meditation. Here are a few more natural methods that may help you find relief from your chronic pain:

#3. Massage

Massages aren’t just a fun activity on spa days; they are actually an effective method of pain relief. Not only do massages feel great, they also boost the production of the hormones serotonin and endorphins, which help to relieve pain.

#4. Exercise

Exercise may be the last thing on your mind when you’re in pain, but many people who suffer from chronic pain have found relief with regular exercise. When you exercise, your body releases more endorphins, which work to raise your threshold of pain. Exercise also builds muscles that help to support and take pressure off of the spine and the joints. You don’t have to lift weights or do anything strenuous. Start out with an easy yoga practice or a short walk, anything to get you up and moving.

#5. Eat a Healthy Diet

Believe it or not, what you eat could actually be contributing to your pain. Some of the most common ingredients in everyone’s favorite unhealthy foods, such as sugar, trans fats and msg, contribute to inflammation. Reduce or eliminate these foods, and replace them with healthy alternatives. This could help you find some relief from your chronic pain.
