Back pain

I have severe back pain. Bio-freeze is my go to. It works so well and I try to put it on once I get out of the shower and also before I go to bed. I’ve also found that using stretches like yoga and even froggies from gymnastics helps out so much! Epsom Salt Baths a few times a week helps out as well.

Stretching, yoga and drinking lots of water. I injured my back years ago, and my lower discs are completely gone. I would visit Ortho Indy to rule out any underlying issues, they have great staff and can lead you to physical therapy to understand movement. Miranda Esmonde-White has a great yoga program. Morning stretches, and keeping active with a program like water aerobics, biking, piyo or other low impact, and keeping a strong core and stretched muscles is key. Drinking lots of water.

Several people in this community have recommended the Prosource Fit Acupressure Mat. I purchased it based on recommendations for my sciatica. It does take a little getting used to, but I do feel it has helped my sciatica and my back in general.

I second the ProSourceFit Acupressure Mat. It works!

Acupressure Mat and stretching. I have a bad upper back and a horrible shoulder and doing these two things help a ton. I hate taking meds if I don't have to. I also ice/heat off and on on the days where it is bad.

ProSource Fit Acupressure Mat. It takes a couple minutes to get comfortable and then it feels amazing and I can actually just about fall asleep on it. For a rub, I love Tiger Balm. Within a couple of hours the pain is minimal. Most times, I don't feel any pain the next day.

I was a cheerleader and gymnastics too. I’ve run a full & half-marathon and I love Ease capsules and Ease Cream from Plexus. They’re natural anti inflammatory products and help me with my aches. I have a link if you’d like to try them.

Does Icy Hot give you any relief? I ask because there is an even stronger cream, Capsaicin. My ex-husband has pretty horrible pain and would use this.

The next thing you could try is Kratom. He’d use that as well for pain and it would help. You can buy it in smoke shops and online now. In fact, I heard it advertised as a tea in a podcast the other day. It’s come a long way.

Chronic neck/back/knee pain here. I definitely prefer topical solutions and particularly love Topicas Infused Cannabis Rubs, they've got a couple different scents and other options

I've heard this acupressure mat does wonders! It's not for the faint-hearted, but people like Tim Ferriss highly recommend it! I also love my mat :) freshchalk.com/joyce_ling#2...

It's not a product/home remedy, but I do Energy Healing and can get rid of physical pain. In case you're just curious, there are testimonials on my Instagram (@reiki_with_deanna) and website (www.ReikiSF.com). I got rid of my own back pain from a car accident and knee pain (no cartilage in my knees after being a runner for 27 years). I offer a free consultation, if you want to chat and have questions :)

I recently tried red light and cryotherapy for a hamstring pull. It seemed to really work!

Have you tried some CBD cream? I use one on my shoulders and my knee. It does pretty well for pain management.

I recommend Peacock Chiropractic in Fishers! They provide a thorough assessment with X-rays and then offer a treatment plan that worked well for me! They are very wellness based and also have success stories from others they can share!

Have you tried Icy Hot? They have a great roller for reaching hard to get places.

I suggest finding a really good chiropractor and then getting massages!

If you have The Joint Chiropractor in your area this is a great place for affordable children care
