Pain is a warning cry. 

Your body wants you to know that something is wrong, and it wants your help to stop it.

Your body probably was tolerant for a long, long time while you did things to aggravate it.  But there comes a time when a body says, “Enough!  Stop hurting me and let’s get back on the road to recovery already!”

There are several things you can do to begin to reduce your pain.

• Consider getting a professional therapeutic massage.  Seek a massage therapist who is familiar with pain syndromes.  Get someone who will work where the cause of your pain is, and not just where the symptom (the pain) is.
• Start a stretching program to loosen areas of muscle tightness in the front of your body.  What?!  Your pain is in the back of your body?  Yes, I’m sure it is.  But the muscles in the front of your body are causing your poor back to be overstretched.
• Improve the quality of your diet and drink lots of water.  Bodies need nutritional support and muscles need to be well hydrated to function their best.  If you eat lots of water-filled fruits and vegetables, that counts toward your water intake, too.  In fact, if you eat lots of fruits and veggies, you are improving your diet already.

Bodies want to be well and feel good.

Sometimes they just need a little tweak.  They need someone to massage a tight muscle, or point out a situation which is causing pain. 

A wallet in a man’s back pocket, for instance, causes back pain because every time he sits, the wallet causes pressure on one side of his low back.  Just on one side, so that little wallet creates a twist in his spine, over and over and over again.  Eventually his body says, “Whoa!  This isn’t working for me anymore!”

Let’s work together to work out your pain.
