Tricks On Stopping Pain Like Using Lavender Heated Neck Wrap

By Eloise Hewitt


Pain or discomfort in necks has somewhat been a common problem but there are ways of prevention and remedy which you can use. These tips are even simple. They would start with maintaining the appropriate posture to keep your weight at even distribution.

There are also some things you can make for yourself. An example would be a lavender heated neck wrap. This is great in relieving tension and stress in your muscles.

The next thing that you can do is to get yourself a chair which is better and it would be best if you would get something that will support your posture. It should encourage you to always be in a good position and at the same time discourage you to sit while hunching over. The latter is the kind that will cause you the pain you want to prevent.

Moreover, there are some people who will have to work for several hours a day sitting at the computer table which would tend to cause stiffness of your body. This would also be applicable for those who will have to travel in planes and buses for a very long period. In order to remedy the situation, you can stretch gently each hour in order to make your muscles loose.

One more move you can actually do in order to gain relief is to especially to a sudden pain is by simply placing an ice pack. Keep it in place for ten up to fifteen minutes every two hours or maybe three hours within the first two days. Be sure you wrap it first with a cloth and do not directly place in on your skin.

There would also be another treatment that should follow this and that would be the heat therapy which you can do after two days. The simplest way to accomplish this is by simply standing under your shower but you may also get some heat pads or microwavable packs. Moreover, there are still those commercial packs which are disposable but are useful for several hours.

It is also beneficial that you would get a gentle and therapeutic massage especially on the area that is affected. This would be great in reducing the pain that you feel and if you already have this setting in your shower, you can use it. You may also apply some relief creams for this and you can ask a therapist to do this for you.

If you are already in bad condition and all of the tips above are not helping anymore, there are some medications you can secure over the counter such as ibuprofen, paracetamol and aspirin. However, taking these pills should be in the right dose. If you do not feel relieved by these, then see your doctor.

Furthermore, you should not also have a very soft mattress and check the springs once in a while because the might have been broken. Better use a firm one as this will not be hurting your spine. You can also have some exercise that can strengthen the muscles in the neck.
