For millions of Americans, severe pain is a fact of everyday life. Standard medicine commonly offers relief through drug therapies. While often effective, these medications come with a host of side effects-- disorientation, drowsiness, mental impairment, nausea, peptic ulcers, tinnitus, and addiction, to mention just a few. Moreover, after prolonged use, the body's tolerance to many of these drugs requires increased dosages to remain effective. Relieving Pain Naturally is divided into two parts. Part One examines over forty of the most common chronic pain-related conditions, from abdominal pain to sciatica to tendonitis. Each disorder is explained, and its alternative pain treatments detailed. Part Two offers twenty-seven drug-free therapies. These entries include both conventional treatments and alternative modalities such as acupuncture, biofeedback, heat and cold therapy, hypnosis, nutrition, and oxygen therapy. Also included are clinical studies and cautions, where applicable.
