Dealing with pain can be a tough problem to tackle, especially when considering the dangers of seeking out relief from pharmaceutical. Thankfully, natural pain remedies can still be quite effective, and often come far milder side effects when compared to traditional opiates. Let’s dive into some natural remedies you can implement in your life to help effectively manage your pain.

Turmeric

This spice has been used for centuries for relieving arthritis pain, heartburn, and reducing inflammation. Recently, it has also been used to help alleviate migraines and the more serious rheumatoid arthritis. Turmeric can be used with little to no side effects, making it a safe and effective choice for relieving pain.

Kratom

The common name for Mitragyna speciosa, kratom comes from the leaves of a tropical evergreen tree found in regions of South Asia. Kratom has shown to be highly effective in pain relief, and has even been used by former opioid addicts to ease off of traditional opiates. At lower doses, kratom has been reported as being slightly stimulating with mild pain relief effects. At higher doses, kratom is effectively at managing moderate pain, and can even be effective in relieving nerve pain.

CBD oil

Short for cannabinol, CBD is one of the main constituents of cannabis. CBD oil is often produced from industrial hemp and has been reported as being effective in reducing inflammation within the body. While studies are still being conducted to discover just how effective CBD is at pain relief, there have been thousands of reports from those who suffer from chronic pain finding relief in CBD oil.

Ginger

This powerful anti-inflammatory has been shown to be more effective than common pain relief drugs like ibuprofen, according to a 2013 study published in the journal arthritis. Ginger has been shown to block more harmful inflammatory compounds than ibuprofen and acetaminophen, and can be an effective natural replacement for managing arthritic pain.

Magnesium

These supplements are great for helping to curb the pain of migraines, muscle spasms, fibromyalgia and even hard to relieve nerve pain. Magnesium deficiency is common in adults and those who regularly consume alcohol may have drastically lowered levels of magnesium. Magnesium works by helping relax your muscles, which in turn can lead to decreased levels of pain.
