Is Your Pillow Finished?

I recently talked to someone who told me she thinks her pillow is worn out.  She said that she has started getting headaches like she did a few years ago.


I knew right away that she was right, she needs a new pillow.  When something like this happens, it's a tell tale sign your pillow is losing support.  I've talked to people that start to get tingling into their fingers, neck pain, or another symptom.  It's most likely the fact that the pillow haslost support, and instead of maintaining the ideal neck alignment, your neck is flattening out and pressure is accumulating on nerves.


Make it easy on yourself, and as soon as a symptom presents itself, get a new pillow.  It'll have the right support, and if it gets rid of headaches for three years, it's well worth it.

Carpal Tunnel Pain Helped with Natural Pain Relief Gel, Study Shows

A recent study showed that biofreeze natural pain relief gel decreased chronic pain and symptoms associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome by as much as 31%. The study conducted in Copenhagen Denmark studied the effects of a placebo cream vs biofreeze on workers in a slaughterhouse.

The Median nerve in the wrist contributes to carpal tunnel syndrome often. When the nerve becomes entrapped due to inflammation of the wrist tissues, a person can have resulting wrist and hand pain. Often people get this type of wrist pain with repetive movement or overusing their wrist.

One of the main ingredients in Biofreeze is menthol. It has helped patients also with arthritis in the knee, neck pain, and lower back pain. Mechanism is through cold therapy where the menthol activates cold receptors to decrease pain.
