Natural pain relief a best-practice for seniors
11/29/2006
Healthy aging may be a hard concept for the millions of seniors who suffer from chronic pain. Lower back pain, arthritis and bone and joint pain are the most common pain conditions afflicting senior Americans today and with the recent scares of fatal side effects from prescription and over the counter pain medications, natural pain remedies have found their way to the top of the list for seniors who want to maintain their quality of life.
With prescription painkillers an often limited benefit comes at great cost – firstly the financial outlay and secondly the side effects and complications. According to an article in the General Internal Medicine journal, many seniors trying to manage chronic pain conditions such as arthritis find the costs so prohibitive they have to skip doses or not use any pain medication at all.
In support of the Healthy Aging movement, Naturally Painless has a special offer of a natural pain relief remedy for seniors.
Even mild side effects are a serious concern for seniors, as their immune, digestive and cardiovascular systems have suffered the ravages of time. Some of the most common side effects experienced by the elderly are drowsiness, dizziness, indigestion and gastrointestinal disorders.
“And with studies showing that two out of three senior Americans who take pain medication say that pain still prevents them from performing routine tasks and doing things they enjoy, you have to ask yourself, what’s the point?” says Judy Cutler, the developer of Naturally Painless and a well-known nutritionist based in Southern California. “You still feel pain, except now you also have an ulcer, partly from the medication and partly from the worrying about the bill!”
Natural pain relief with no side effects is a far better and more cost effective choice for seniors. “Naturally Painless is a non-ingested and non-invasive spray that gives almost immediate relief from aches and pains,” says Cutler. “It’s made from purely natural ingredients and has no side effects at all. It’s the perfect way to get rid of pain and start enjoying life again.”
