Are you someone who suffers from chronic pain? Then, you have probably tried every remedy under the sun, from oral medication to topical creams. While these treatments are a good short-term solution, they simply numb you to the pain instead of treating the source of your condition. Eventually, this will become an ineffective treatment method as your body slowly builds up a tolerance to the medication. What works now may not work a couple of years in the future. That’s just how it goes when you medicate the pain away. 

Chronic pain is like a nightmare that you never seem to wake up from. Whether it’s your back, knees, neck, feet, shoulder, or some combination of injured body parts, all you want is relief. Many doctors will recommend pharmaceuticals to numb the pain, but pain killers fail to address the source of your pain. Some doctors may recommend highly invasive surgery that can potentially be avoided through other treatment methods.
