Pain Management
As much as it causes discomfort, at times pain is a necessary form of protection. This is because our bodies are designed to experience pain as a warning. Without this information, your body would be unaware of injuries, or the extent of the injuries.
Not all pain is necessary. Harmony Health has had success by using natural medicines to bring relief to sufferers of chronic pain. Sometimes it is as simple as course of natural remedies, following diagnosis.
Aches and pains from headaches, sore muscles, pinched nerves, or chronic conditions such as arthritis often persist long after the body has received the message. Lower back pain, for example, is the second leading cause of absenteeism from work.
Herbs and homeopathic remedies have a long history of use to relieve pain. Feverfew has been used traditionally for headaches, migraines, and other bodily aches and pains. Arnica has been used homeopathically to treat bruising and reduce swelling. Boswellia serrata, an Ayurvedic remedy, has been clinically proven to reduce symptoms of arthritis.

It’s not in the mind – Homeopathy works. To cite one instance of many: In a study conducted at the Centre for Complementary Health Studies at the University of Exeter, 82 osteoarthritis patients were given either white willow or a placebo. After two months, white willow bark was found to be far more effective at reducing pain than the placebo treatment.
Another trial involving osteoarthritis patients found that 100mg of white willow bark used over a two-month period helped to considerably ease pain and improve joint function.

This and other clinical tests show that natural remedies are not psychosomatic – they do make a difference and the academic evidence is increasing as the number of objective studies grows.
