Got Pain? Try Neural Reset Therapy®!

,

I am a hope-filled cynical person. I try things in hope they will be good, but I’m generally braced for disappointment. So when I jammed my sciatic joint — LOTS of nerves run through there — I was prepared for my physical therapy to do me good, and for it to take time. What I was less prepared for was the amount of pain that would persist during that time. After 9 days of taking ibuprofen 24/7, Neural Reset Therapy® was suggested to me.

I didn’t fully understand Neural Reset Therapy®, but I knew enough to be sure it couldn’t hurt, and if it helped at all I’d be pleased. So, at Sara’s recommendation, I set up a session.

photo(12)The results were, truthfully, Amazing! At the end of the session, I honestly could not feel the injury at all. My range of motion was normal and painless. It was, frankly, freaky but great!

Over the next several hours, the sense of injury gradually reinstated itself, but at perhaps one-third its original strength. MORE than two-thirds of my pain was gone! I didn’t need ibuprofen anymore.

And my range of motion remained fully restored! (Which made for several surprised faces at my next physical therapy appointment.)

Study reveals massage is an effective treatment for neck pain!

Have you experienced any of these problems?

  • chronic tightness and pain in the neck and shouldersstiff-neck-1
  • neck pain from sleeping in an awkward position
  • bad posture such as hunched shoulders and a forward head position
  • an achy upper body from sitting at your desk all day
  • arthritis
  • whiplash
  • a pinched nerve causing neck pain
  • muscle strain or degenerative disease causing neck pain

You are not alone! Over 15% of Americans suffer from neck pain leading to more than 10 million medical visits per year.  And this number only reflects the people who have been treated for their neck pain.

If you have experienced neck pain, you know that it can be debilitating.   Nothing can ruin your day more than neck pain that restricts your movement and prohibits you from doing your daily activities with ease.

A new study from the Annals of Family Medicine published in April of this year, shows that people who receive 1 hour massage sessions given 3 times per week, are 2 times more likely to have a significant reduction in pain and 5 times more likely to have improvement in function.    Read the full study here.

Massage is not merely a tool to relax, although it definitely will help you relax and relieve stress!  Regular massage can be a great tool in your personal health care practices to help you relieve neck pain so you can live your life to the fullest.
