Treat Pinched Nerves Naturally With CBD

Pinched nerves are a common reason for back pain, which impact about 70% of people during their lifetime. Poor sitting habits, incorrect posture, and sometimes just aging become common factors that lead to the nerves getting unnecessary pressure from the surrounding tissues.

These pinched nerves often result in sharp shooting pain in the back, neck, and shoulders of patients. Luckily, there are several solutions out there today that can help you manage the pain that comes with this condition. Let’s know more about them.

Bringing down the pain with CBD

Apart from the regular medicines that your orthopedic doctor may prescribe you, cannabidiol (CBD) is another option you would want to consider. CBD can reduce inflammation and pain, as well as ease anxiety over chronic pain.

The highly beneficial compound comes from the magic herbs of cannabis. It interacts with the endocannabinoid system of the human body to produce pain-relieving effects. One can consume CBD as oils, gummies, or apply it topically over the pinched nerve site to ease the inflammation in these regions. Depending on the country or the state you belong to, you may get access to it with a doctor’s prescription.

Stretches with yoga

Yoga is helpful for conditions such as pinched nerves. It works even better when it is in your lumbar or cervical regions. The centuries-old practice has a lot of literature written about how it can help find the body, its balance. Practicing it can immensely help with healing sciatica and other ailments that may come from a compressed nerve.

Yoga stretches have the potential to relieve the pressure on your pinched nerves. However, it is to be understood that one must not straightaway go for difficult yoga positions. It is preferable to find a personal trainer that can help you with getting started.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is highly underrated and is still less heard of in the west. But the traditional technique from China is a great tool to deal with pinched-nerve-like conditions. Once the site of the pinched nerve is confirmed in a region with MRIs, an acupuncture practitioner can alleviate pressure there.

Treatment involves the use of fine needles that are pin-pointed at the region of concern to bring down the pain. The treatment is of use only during the early stage of conditions and not when a disc between the bones is ruptured or ‘slipped.’

chiropractic adjustments help pinched nerves in back

Chiropractic adjustments

Several pinched nerve cases leading to sciatica are often a result of pelvic or other lower back misalignments. A qualified chiropractor can help you ease out your related aches by using the needed manipulations. They would often take a few weeks to get the alignment of your body in place, and once done, patients are given a few exercises to make their neck or back stronger.

Chiropractic manipulations are also a considerable option to go for before taking yoga lessons, as they bring down the nerve-related pain considerably low. These manipulations make it easy for you to perform different stretches. But no matter how helpful chiropractic solutions maybe, they are not permanent. You can expect to have an appointment with the chiropractors every couple of months to get some relief from your compressed nerve-related issues.

Changes in lifestyle

Managing pinched nerves is not only about medicines and takes quite a bit of change to your lifestyle too. If you have daily routines that are something like sitting in front of your computer screens all the time, then it may be a good time to look into it. Finding better posture (probably a better chair for work) is a minor adjustment that is likely to impact how your back or neck feels each day.

If you have put on extra weight that is not fit for your body, it is time to shed it. Little dietary changes and some work out can take you a long way ahead. For the people who slouch a lot out of their habit, or if you lie all the time watching Netflix, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to take a visit to a physical therapist or a chiropractor and work on your posture.

Happy International Women's Day to all the women c Happy International Women's Day to all the women crushing it despite getting less pay, less startup funding, less everything when it comes to business. Let's do more than recognize women.
In 2023, it's time to:
*Buy from women-owned businesses
*Give women a seat at the table, preferably the board
*End all male speaking panels
*Invest in women startups, including those focused on serving women
*Include more women in clinical trials
*End toxic work cultures
*Support paid maternity leave policies
*Fill the wage gap between men and women
*Donate to nonprofits serving women
*Let women take time off of work for painful periods without stigma or penalty
*Work harder to specifically include and apply all of these principles to women from marginalized groups such as black women, disabled women, LGBTQ women, and females identifying as nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer.
And so. much. more.

No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children trick or treating on Halloween. Those reports you hear on the news simply aren’t true! ⁣
⁣
However, if you are attending a Halloween party for adults, ask if the candies, goodies, or drinks are special or infused! Edibles are more common at parties as an alternative to alcohol, especially in states where the plant has been legalized for both recreational & medical use.⁣
⁣
If you’re not used to consuming, try a small piece or half a piece, drink plenty of water, and make sure you have a safe place to sit if needed. And always call a rideshare aka Uber or Lyft home!⁣
⁣
Happy Halloween! 🎃💀👻⁣

Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄 ⁣ Which is you Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄
⁣
Which is your favorite Medicinal Mushr00m?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It's more important than ever to take mushr00m supplements. Here's a little about how my favorite four mushr00ms work:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Lion’s Mane Mushr00ms: great for improving focus and memory. Lion's mane promotes neurogenesis, or birth of new brain cells.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Cordyceps Mushr00ms: great for fighting fatigue and increasing length of your workouts. It's especially helpful for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Turkey Tail Mushr00ms: great for supporting your immune system. Clinical trials have looked at its role in fighting cancer.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Reishi Mushr00ms: what can't the queen of mushr00ms do? It fights cancer, boosts the immune system, improves mood, levels blood sugar, and promotes heart health.⁣⁣

9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a da 9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a day to celebrate them?
Well in the United States & many parts of the world, they are still illegal, similar to another misunderstood therapeutic green plant we celebrate on 4/20. 
I've worked hard over the years in Denver & many other states to help decriminalize shr00ms and help people access information on how to use them for medical, spiritual, and stress relief purposes. I suggest following @decriminalizenature & @doubleblindmag for deeper info.
How are you celebrating today? ❤️ 🍄 ❤️

I’m not the only one, right? 😜 👩🏻‍🔬 💚
As a neuroscientist, I put out the first book on the potential causes of endocannabinoid deficiency and how to balance your ECS with or without plant medicine. 
From stress to medications to diet to your genes, there are so many ways your ECS go go haywire. The fact that so many people respond to plant medicine is likely because so many of us have severe imbalances.
