A Pain In The Neck!

What are some of the causes of neck pain? Here are some of the main culprits.

1. Carrying heavy loads
2. Sports injuries
3. Over exercising
4. Stress
5. Sleeping in an awkward position

Natural pain relief can be as effective as the pharmaceutical alternatives.
Try gentle exercise such as stretching, Yoga or Tai Chi to strengthen your neck muscles. (Do consult your Health Practitioner first)

Heat packs alternated with cold packs will help inflammation.
Other natural anti-inflammatory helpers are Turmeric and Meadowsweet, which are also excellent for arthritic pain.

I have found great relief from back pain due to an injury with Icewave pain patches, an exclusive innovation for pain relief using new technology to gently stimulate acupuncture points. (without the needles!) It really works!
