Natural Remedies for Pain Relief

If you experience chronic pain, keeping up with medicine just to feel normal can get pretty expensive in the long run. Luckily, there are natural remedies for pain relief that you can even make at home. To help you select a pain relief method, let’s go over some of the best remedies.

CBD Oil

Commonly found in marijuana, CBD oil does not give you a “high” sensation. Instead, CBD aids in reducing stress, anxiety, and pain. As cannabis becomes more accepted, CBD oil becomes more accessible as home extraction appliances enter the market to allow for the easy creation of this and other plant-based oils. CBD reduces inflammation and pain by interacting with your endocannabinoid system to help your cells respond to stimuli and signals.

Ginger

Ginger is already a popular additive to help soothe cold-related congestion, and many people also find that using ginger helps soothe pain like arthritis. People theorize that ginger accomplishes this by reducing your prostaglandin levels. You can often find ginger at your local grocery store, and it provides a cheaper remedy compared to medicines like aspirin.

Willow Bark

Speaking of aspirin, willow bark has long been used as one of the natural remedies for pain relief because it contains an aspirin-like compound called salicin. Users of willow bark experience an effective reduction in inflammation and pain for joints and hips. You can find willow bark at drug stores or health food stores in a powdered, encapsulated form.

Turmeric

An ayurvedic spice used in curry, turmeric is helpful for those experiencing arthritis. It contains an antioxidant compound called curcumin, which can overpower inflammatory-inducing proteins called cytokines. If you’re looking for pain relief and perhaps even a new recipe, try making your own curry at home. Turmeric can often be found in grocery stores associated with Asian foods, as well as health food stores.
