3 Introduction These days, it s common for your body to be in a constant state of pain or distress. As a result, many people are living on muscle relaxers, painkillers and antiinflammatory medications just to cope with the pain and make it through the day. There are, however other ways for you to restore your ability to live without pain, more naturally, and be able to embrace life and live it to it s fullest. Dr. Deb We understand that whether you re dealing with an injury, neck pain or back pain, migraine headaches or even something as serious as cancer, the one constant is that pain can be a debilitating and an exhausting experience, both physically and emotionally. In order to help, we have shared some holistic methods and natural treatments that will help alleviate your pain and get you on your way to achieving your ultimate health. These are the some of the supplements we might recommend: Krill Oil Boswelliazyme Natural Calm Relief Tone Bromelain Arnica Cryoderm/Biofreeze Lumbar Cushions, Dennerolls, Traction Units and Pillows Please see Dr. Deb at Lake Pointe Chiropractic for a complimentary consultation before taking any supplement or herbal remedy.

5 Teas and Oils Wouldn t you like a safer, healthier, low cost natural solution with no harmful side effects to help reduce pain and inflammation? Now, did you know that you most likely have the natural pain relievers we re talking about in your kitchen right now? Green tea, ginger, cinnamon and rosemary are a few of the many healthier remedies that can help reduce pain the natural way. Fish oil can also help reduce inflammation. In addition, fish oil has the added benefit of reducing cholesterol. We also utilize essential oils to help reduce pain and inflammation and to encourage healing. We mix them into our massage oils to use while you are here in our office. We can also recommend oils that you can use topically and internally depending on your symptoms. Some of these essential oils include: Peppermint Oil Lavender Oil Lemon Oil Panaway Oil Some beneficial teas we recommend: Matcha Tea Type of Green Tea Tulsi Tea Ginger Tea There are many, many safe, home remedies at your fingertips.

6 Massage Therapy For many, there is still the misconception that massage therapy is for the affluent, or as something to do once in a great while to pamper yourself. In reality, an appointment with a licensed massage therapist has many health benefits, and most people who are struggling with any type of medical diagnosis can find relief with regular sessions. There are many health issues that can find relief from massage therapy. However, if you suffer from pain resulting from the following conditions, consider making an appointment with a professional licensed massage therapist to help you naturally and effectively alleviate your pain: Fibromyalgia Arthritis Lupus Depression Migraine Headaches Nerve Disorders Sports Injuries Muscle Or Joint Pain There are a number of different types of massages, all which will help you reduce pain, to choose from. They include: Hot Stone massage, Swedish massage, Deep tissue massage, Neuromuscular Therapy, Swe-Thai massage, reflexology, reiki and Pregnancy massage. A licensed massage therapist can discuss your health issues and help you decide which type of massage is right for you.

7 Co-enzyme Q-10 For Pain Co-enzyme Q-10 is a supplement that you may not have heard of before. This vitamin-like substance is produced in the body, and it can help reduce pain, especially chest pain. As we age, we do not produce as much CoQ10 and require additional supplementation to stay healthy and feel great. This co-enzyme may also give you a burst of energy, because it helps manufacture adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Eat your heart out five-hour energy! CoQ10 is also helpful for anyone with memory loss, headaches and oxygenization issues!

8 Chiropractic Care Having pain as the result of an injury or medical condition can make a person s life miserable. There are many people who experience no relief at all when following recommendations and/or taking medications prescribed by their physicians. In these cases chiropractic care may be a good option for these people. Chiropractic care involves spinal manipulation and other treatments by a trained professional. They know that once a person s body is in alignment, it has a chance to heal itself without the need for surgery or medication. Chiropractic care can also successfully treat deep tissue injuries caused by a traumatic event. It can enable a person to once again move their joints without pain. There has been research done that proves chiropractic care is effective in treating a person who has neck pain and headaches. Individuals experiencing pain from fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis have responded well to chiropractic care combined with deep tissue massage. There are many professional athletes who have become pain free as a result of experiencing chiropractic care. Everyone from Michael Jordan to Joe Montana and even Tiger Woods point to chiropractic care as the reason they are free from pain.

9 Conditions that benefit from chiropractic care: Arthritis Degenerative Disc Disease Herniated/Bulging Discs Neck Pain Low Back Pain Headaches/Migraine Headaches Elbow Pain & Shoulder Pain Plantar Fasciitis Foot Pain Hip Pain Sciatica Digestive Dysfunction Allergies Many more

10 Anti-Inflammatory Herbs and Vitamins There are many anti-inflammatory type herbs, such as ginger and turmeric, and vitamins that can help reduce pain. Reducing inflammation is extremely important in regards to reducing pain because inflammation may contribute to painful conditions such as osteoarthritis. Traditional medications may help, such as aspirin or ibuprofen, because they help block the enzyme that triggers pain. Some popular anti-inflammatory herbs and vitamins: Ginger Turmeric Coq10 Boswelliazyme Krill Oil Fish Oil Cinnamon Garlic Clove Many more
