Millions of people in the United States and around the world endure daily pains and discomforts due to back injury, strain, or disorder. Back pain has become more commonplace among those who primarily spend their working days in a seated or sedentary posture and with others who perform repetitive duties throughout the day. The ancient wisdom of Oriental medicine and Chinese herb therapy maintains its practicality and effectiveness for regaining the spine's strength, stability, and flexibility.
Back pain can be acute, recurring, or chronic. The leading cause of back pain today is muscle strain from bending or twisting, poor posture, and seated working conditions. The pain can sometimes be immediate as with injuries due to car accidents but typically it develops over a long period of time. Frequently the pain can be attributed to Nerve Impingement Syndrome (a pinched nerve in the spinal column) or a deteriorating condition of the vertebrae. Besides the pain itself tension, spasm, insomnia, and depression may follow. A good herb treatment will address all of these in relation to the patient's viscera and internal milieu.

Many herbs use the same biochemical pathways as other pain relievers. In the short run they are typically not as invasive but they have a myriad of positive effects. The antispasmodic and circulation inducing qualities make up for pain suppression. Because Chinese medicine views the body as fully integrated, rather than a series of isolated systems that make up a whole, back pain is not only attributed to breakdown of muscles, bones, and tissue but also to improper organ function and flow of Chi and bodily fluids.

If a patient approaches a Chinese Herbalist with back pains to sprain, strain, or injury as with work and sports the Herbalist may offer herbs to relieve blood stasis, dispel acid buildup, and facilitate the natural recovery process. In this way the spot of acute injury can receive the nutrients it needs to heal more rapidly. If a patient complains that cold weather makes their back stiff the Herbalist may give a mixture of herbs to dispel cold or dry up the damp. In TCM and herbal therapy incidences of back pain are hardly considered to be isolated events. Everything is a factor. The goal of Chinese herb therapy is to regain balance in all ways physical, chemical, and energetic.

Herbs are administered in a variety of combinations and ways. Today many roots and plants come in capsulated form and can be simply swallowed with water, thereby avoiding sometimes less than desirable or bitter tastes. Many naturopathic pharmacies make these herbs readily available; however, one should consult a trained herbalist to learn of contraindications when taking herbs for back pain and to receive the correct combination to suit there specific needs.

Hello friend! I would like to bring to your kind attention that Darvon medicine is chemically very similar to some narcotics. In fact, many people feel it is in the narcotic family. It seems like you have to be very cautious not to use it appropriately, but you should be clever to stay aware for any increase in your dosage of Darvon or any other abusable medications. Best of luck!

We should not underestimate the efficiency of physiotherapy in back pain relief. I would go for a combination of herbs, physiotherapy and gymnastic exercises for a complete covering of causing factors.

Hi medboop, my uncle is using Chinese herbs to get rid of his pain in lumber region. It is working fine for him. One saint in old monastery suggested him first to take that, it is doing magic for him. Before his meeting with saint, his condition was severe. After visiting doors of famous doctors, he totally gave up hope of betterment, but now that herb has brought revolution in his life, he never thinks about before.
