Do you rely on drugs to help you get through your day without agonising pain?
Do you worry that these drugs may be placing your health at unacceptable risk?
Do you feel anxious or count the minutes until your next dosage of these pain relievers regardless of that risk?
Taking painkillers to rid yourself of pain may seem like a good solution for short time, but it’s not a viable option for long term pain relief. Today, we know that the serious and potentially fatal risks of opioids can far outweigh their uncertain benefits in many situations. Doctor-prescribed opioids are appropriate in some cases, but they just mask the pain. Risks associated with opioid include depression, overdose, and addiction, plus withdrawal symptoms when stopping their use.
Getting to the Root of Problem! Don’t Mask the Symptoms with Medication
Physiotherapists treat pain through movement, hands-on care, and patient education. By increasing physical activity, you can also reduce your risk of other chronic diseases.
