Ending the Cycle of Chronic Pain
In our modern world many people are plagued with chronic pain. For some it is a mere annoyance, that aching feeling. Many tune it out, only to realize when they release the pain of how much pain they had hidden away.
When we turn to the cause of our subtle or chronic aches and pains, we find many directions. Is it dietary, or chemical exposure? Is it overuse of the body through hard work? Is it abuse caused by substance addition, like drugs, alcohol or even sugar? There is no single answer, and no solitary solution.
One direction the subtle pain relief researchers have suggested is the connection between nutrition and chronic subtle pain. Often the holistic based recommendations for treating subtle, chronic pain combines many therapies, including acupuncture, yoga, detoxification, and nutrition.
One study conducted at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto Canada compared two treatment programs for chronic low back pain. The intent of the study was to show the affectiveness of naturopathic treatment such as dietary supplements including magnesium, breathing exercises, and acupuncture.(1)
In the study traditional physiotherapy was used for half the test group, and the naturopathic treatment program was prescribed for the other half. The results showed that there was a greater decrease of chronic back pain in those who were treated by the naturopathic methods.
Nutritionally speaking, magnesium is a vital mineral nutrient, a key element in over 300 enzyme reactions in the body. According to Science Daily half of Americans do not get enough magnesium. Magnesium deficiencies can cause pain and muscle cramps as well as many other health problems.(2)
There is no measure of how long it takes to create a condition such as chronic pain, and likewise there is no magic bullet that will lift us from its clutches. Perhaps if we focus on some of the more basic elements, such as diet and nutrition, we might see progress in our plea for pain release. Magnesium, for example, is easy to introduce into the body through pleasant applications such as magnesium oil or a warm, nutritional magnesium bath.
