CONVENTIONAL AND ALTERNATIVE PAIN MANAGEMENT
steroid. Its purpose is to suppress the secretion of substances in the body that cause inflammation. Where there’s inflammation, there’s also pain, and thus the Cortisone injection provides you with temporary relief. However, it is important to note that prolonged treatment will place you at risk of tolerance. Cortisone (Corticosteroids) will also suppress your immune function, thereby leaving you vulnerable to infection and other illnesses. It is cautioned, that you should avoid being near anyone who is sick, especially, someone who has chicken pox or measles, as exposure can be fatal.
Homeopathic Injections on the other hand, are a safe, natural, alternative to corticosteroids. Like cortisone, the natural injections will provide you with immediate relief from progressive, chronic, and acute pain. But unlike the steroid, there are no adverse side effects, no risk of tolerance, and no pharmaceutical interactions. Homeopathic injections work by delivering natural, non-toxic, medication (natural extracts, homeopathic agents, and vitamins) to the area of pain. This will in turn, stimulate your body’s natural release of anti-pain chemical mediators.
The complexity of our design is astonishing, and when we allow our body its natural responses, we have a firsthand look at the body’s amazing, self-correcting, natural abilities.
