An Overview Of Back Pain Treatments

By Wilson Resturbee


Although there are many back pain treatments, there is still no instant cure. Very similar to the common cold, back pain is simply an ailment that is hard to remove. Even though there is no cure, you can still improve how you feel. What you have to do is have patience and an open mind to try many different remedies. To help you out, we have listed several back pain treatment options for your perusal.

Have you heard of Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)? It is a new way of treating back pain that is the result of advances of modern technology. The results of using this high-tech level system looks promising, however, it has not been used on enough people to clearly demonstrate its capabilities. The pain that a person feels will actually diminish by virtue of the lasers interacting with the body's tissues at a cellular level at the proper wavelength. Gradually becoming more popular, this technique is being used in several treatment centers nationwide in limited numbers.

The Alexander Technique is a system of healing that teaches people how to stand and move in ways that are in harmony with the way the body is constructed. It focuses a great deal on posture, which is really central to the health of your spine. Someone trained in the Alexander Technique can show you how to sit, stand and walk in a more natural and relaxed manner, and this is one of the best ways to prevent back problems.

This isn't an instant cure if your back hurts right now, but it's something to consider for the long term health of your spine. Videos and information on the Alexander Technique, as well as trained practitioners of the method, can be found on the Internet. Just use a search engine to find this information.

There's a remedy called capsaicin cream that many people aren't aware of, and this can help to give you relief from back pain. Capsaicin is the ingredient that makes chili peppers hot. The sensation you get on your taste buds when you eat a capsaicin loaded chili pepper is similar to the affect it has on your back when you rub the cream in. The heat the capsaicin cream releases is very therapeutic, even though you might feel a burning sensation at first. If you are applying it to yourself, or having someone else rub it on your back, be sure whoever is doing the applying wears disposable gloves as a protection for their hands. Capsaicin cream is, in general, more effective than other over-the-counter creams and ointments and has the benefit of being a natural product. Many drugstores today do sell it, though, and you can also find it at health food stores or online. Hopefully, by the end of this article, you will have several ideas that may help you with your back pain. People that are seeing a physician should definitely consult them about other alternatives that may provide more relief on a faster basis. You can also do some things on your own which includes changing your mattress, changing your diet, and doing some exercises.
