This past summer the kids spent several mornings exploring rocky terrain and forests in India, with dad leading the way.While this may not seem like that big a deal to many, for my husband, who deals with chronic back pain issues from a sports injury as a child, it was huge.

Every steep incline and mound climbed with our toddler on his shoulder meant further stress on his back but he strode through every one of their exploratory adventures with a smile.

When chronic pain is no longer the enemy

Chronic back pain can be quite the thorn in ones flesh especially when your profession calls for you to provide relief to patients who come your way with the same condition.

Over the years my husband has learned there are two ways to deal with a chronic pain condition:

1. You can mope, whine and have a pity party OR
2. Shrug off discouragement, adapt a new lifestyle and be an overcomer!

That’s right! You are an overcomer. Print out this free wall art, frame and hang it where you can be reminded of this truth daily.

Based on what has worked for my husband, he offers these time-tested tips to ensure chronic pain will no longer be the enemy:

1. Eat healthy and hydrate yourself. Remember, unwanted pounds and unnecessary flab will only add extra stress on a chronic back injury.

2.  Correct your posture. Even if you aren’t sitting on a chair , try to ensure you’re sitting as straight back as possible.3. Stay active. Strengthen your core and stretch daily or even twice a day.

4. For back pain relief, stay away from over the counter allopathic drugs that over the long run have negative side effects on one’s health. Instead choose a safer, more effective, pain relief dietary supplement that is non addictive and is herbal based.

Curamin® Stop Pain Now is the #1 brand voted for pain relief, yes, even chronic back pain.

A key ingredient in its formula is curcumin, a beneficial compound found in turmeric, which everyone knows has anti-inflammatory properties. For best results, it’s recommended 3 capsules be taken each day and no, there are no negative side effects and this is 100% natural. Curamin® Stop Pain Now Extra Strength (60 capsules) can be found in a health store near you. We bought ours at our local Sprouts store, down the Joint Health aisle.Ready to say goodbye to that pain?
