Fibromyalgia is probably one of the least understood ailments and that’s scary because it affects an alarming 10 million people in the US alone. Up to 90% of fibromyalgia sufferers are women that are living with this debilitating chronic illness. There are some points that medical professionals and researchers can agree on, and that is that fibromyalgia affects the nervous system at a physical and mental level. To be clear, this doesn’t mean that you are making up your illness, it means that the brain sends out pain messages to the body that may be distorted.
There is also no known cure for fibromyalgia and the complexity of symptoms that fibromyalgia causes. In this post we want to share what users of Aromalief have shared with us specifically about fibromyalgia to help you find relief.
4 Tips on How to Use Aromalief Cream for Fibromyalgia Pain Relief
- Apply Aromalief® from the neck down the back along the spinal cord to get the most pain relief in a generalized sense. Because fibromyalgia pain can affect the entire body, users explain that this gives them overall relief. This makes a lot of sense since pain messages are sent from the brain to the rest of the body through the spinal cord.
-
Using it just before going to sleep is the best time to apply the cream. This is because night time is the period of the day where the body recovers and cells regenerate. Aromalief in Lavender also uses the properties of lavender to help calm the mind to prepare the brain for sleep. Maybe you are experiencing sleepless nights because of the pain and not getting the rest that you need. By applying Aromalief at night you may experience a better night sleep.
- Gently massage cream in a circular motion to improve circulation in the hands and feet. Hands and feet are full of pressure points and by touching them with soft pressure you will activate the release of endorphins to help the body. Aromalief is non-greasy and it will absorb nicely into your skin. You are too tender to massage, that is ok too. The cream contains arginine an ingredient used to promote circulation.
- Going for a walk helps to reduce pain, but you may not feel up to it every day. When you wake up in the morning, apply the cream to your knees and lower back to help you get out the door a little easier and help make your walk more enjoyable. Start off with short distances and increase on days when you feel up to it. Always being careful not to over do it. Even if you feel amazing, you should still try to pace yourself. What if you can only walk to the corner of your street and back? Well that is perfectly fine too. Don’t feel bad that you got dressed just to go out and come right back in. You did it and that’s what matters.
