Medication and surgery works for all sorts of different diseases.
But they frequently do not work to cure chronic pain...and I know this very well because I have been living with chronic pain for well over a year and nothing doctors gave me worked.
So I have been on a pretty intense journey to heal myself and I've discovered a number of non-drug non-surgery ways to significantly reduce the amount of pain I feel in a given day.
They work for me. And from what I can tell, they work for hundreds of thousands of other people.
I am not 100% "cured", I still have bad days...but I have SIGNIFICANTLY reduced my reliance on pain medication. And, most importantly I have discovered how to stay hopeful and happy despite the pain. This is true for almost everyone who uses these tools.
If you or someone you care about suffers from chronic pain (migraines, back or leg pain, elbow or neck pain...ANY PAIN that's long term and wont go away) I strongly recommend you give these things a try.
You dont have to believe they work.
You dont have to want to do them.
Just give them a try!
My five ideas to help ease your chronic pain:
1. Go to Curable Health and try it out for a month: https://www.curablehealth.com/
2. Listen to some doctors explain the pain cycle...and how to break it: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tell-me-about-your-pain/id1503847664
3. Listen to some people who significantly reduced their pain which can give you the inspiration you need to believe you can get better: https://www.curablehealth.com/podcast?gad=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIveqXyarhgAMVw4VbCh0pjwUOEAAYASAAEgItQfD_BwE
4. Watch some videos on Cold Plunging with Wim Hof: https://www.facebook.com/reel/6995193690493339
5. Read a book on the science and history of breathing by James Nestor: https://www.mrjamesnestor.com/
