BackAche Treatments with herbs and Essential Oils
BACKACHE Treatment
By Jeanne Rose
INTRODUCTION:
Years ago I had chronic back pain. At times I was unable to walk correctly as my leg would buckle from the pain that radiated down my back. At that time, during the days that I lived in Big Sur, surgery was recommended to fuse some vertebrae to alleviate the pain. Eventually, with the help of others who suffered back pain, I devised a formula to treat backache. In all cases where it was consistently used, the pain and disabling effects disappeared.
Exercise is the key. However, wait until back pain subsides before beginning your exercise program. The stomach muscles must be strengthened in order to support the weak back. Many excellent exercise books describe the exercises to strengthen a back. The simplest is one in which you lie upon a firm surface with your back pressed flat against the surface, knees bent. Draw one knee up to the chest, turn the leg, knee to the outside and lay it flat as possible alongside the body and slowly straighten the leg until both legs are parallel. Do this ten times on each side twice a day. Walk as much as possible – use comfortable appropriate shoes. Sitting is the worst thing you can do. If your job requires lots of sitting, get up, stretch at least every thirty minutes, and always keep knees higher than hips. Never place feet flat on floor – use a stool for feet to raise your knees.

If you actually want to cheer yourself up, and do something good for your body. An aromatherapy candle is the right solution if you are feeling under the weather for any reason. Aromatherapy candles are candles that are infused with essential oils, which are what make these candles work. Aromatherapy is the art of healing the senses by the use of scents that lift a person’s mood, thereby curing the health. It is also called as an alternative to medicinal healing, although its effectiveness is still under scrutiny. These essential oils are derived from such things as plants, flowers, wood and fruit. These candles come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and are filled with various essential oils.
