Back pain is a pestering ordeal to go through and some treatments may cause even more danger than the pain itself. Abusing on pain medication such as Vicodin, OxyContin, Morphine and Methadone has been a struggle for physicians, patients and drug regulators alike, and the number of emergency room visits related to pain meds overdose doubled over the past 2 years. With these statistics scaring the public off this type of back pain relief, how can one achieve a pain-free back without even trying pain meds?
The public is well aware of its consequences through different announcements and mediums. Even the lead character of the famous American television series House who’s a doctor struggles with his addiction to Vicodin, and his witty dementia is well displayed for its viewers to know the superficial effects of regular pain medication intake. As a caring citizen, it hurts to realize that this type of treatment is still widely administered to patients suffering from pain worldwide. To make matters worse, the deaths related to pain medicine overdose reach up to 13 million each year in America, and in every minute, 25,000 teenagers try to get high from ingesting these drugs for recreational purposes.
There is one form of remedy that can diminish this problem: the use of heat therapy. Heat therapy is administered through the use of therapy wraps, and it just recently got better with the innovation of Far Infrared Ray technology that makes the heat reach deep into the damaged back muscles and bones, unlike pain medications that perform internal physiological actions, such as alter the mood and affect the mental and emotional stability of the patient. Heat therapy is a great way to administer back pain relief at home, or anywhere without invasive surgeries and most importantly, without pharmaceutical aid.
Heat therapy is much efficient and definitely a safer choice compared to pain relief drugs. A 30-minute session will show significant results without being moody and prone to addiction. Before choosing any back pain relief product, consult your physician about it.
