If
you've got pain in your shoulders, you might think there's
nothing you can do. You might've tried popping prescription pills, or maybe
you've gone to see your doctor and he just told you to rest?
Whatever
you've tried already, you probably haven't tried home physiotherapy for the pain in your shoulder, right?
I
suffered a shoulder injury in the gym a while ago, and at first, I didn't know
what to do. My doctor told me to rest, so I did, but nothing got any better. I
still had the agonizing pain in my shoulder. And it was constant - all day,
every day, and all night too!
After
I did some research on the internet about pain in shoulders, I discovered that
you can treat your shoulder pain at home with a few simple stretches and
exercises which almost magically restore your shoulder to its natural state.
I
was a bit skeptical at first, but gave it a go and felt better after my first
session. I persevered, and a few weeks later, here I am back to normal with no
more pain in the shoulder!
Home
physiotherapy is easy to do, and works to heal the pain in your shoulder for
most common shoulder injuries.
All
it takes is a special set of stretches and exercises designed to restore range
of motion, flexibility, loosen up your shoulder, promote regrowth and
restoration of damaged tissues and ultimately: relieve the pain in your
shoulder.
Just
spend a few minutes a day, probably in the morning before work, going through a
simple routine of simple stretching and gentle arm exercises (no treadmills or
100lb dumbbells here!), and you'll be pain free in no time.
It
worked for me, and it can work for you too. You don't need to spend hundreds or
thousands on doctors and surgery. Give home physio a try today.
After
I cured my shoulder pain, I wrote a book about my experiences and documented
everything I learned about the special stretches and exercises I'd uncovered
during my research.
Joe Brent is a
former chronic should pain sufferer.He beat his shoulder pain for good without
surgery and completely rehabilitated himself from the comfort of his own home.
When
Joe injured his shoulder from a combination of working out incorrectly and bad
posture, he spent hours every day digging through medical and sports
literature, talking to medical experts, professional athletes and anyone he
could find that had any experience of shoulder and rotator cuff injuries.
He realized that it was possible to skip the surgery and the physical
therapy appointments and do all the stretches and exercises on his own.
In
just a few weeks, Joe was able to heal his own shoulder pain. He wanted
to share his successful experiences with others and show them how to quickly
rehab their shoulder injuries and that’s how he came up with his shoulder
pain relief guide called Shoulder Pain No

Eliminate
Your Shoulder Pain for Good - Pain in Your Shoulder? Here's the Ultimate Cure
Pain in the shoulder is horrible. It's not until you
damage something like your shoulder that you realise quite how much we all rely
on our shoulders for most everyday activities.
Carrying
shopping, picking things up, reaching high objects, opening the refrigerator,
even something as simple as putting on a backpack becomes difficult with pain
in the shoulder. Not to mention trying to get comfortable in your favourite
chair or sleep easily at night!
I
suffered from pain in my shoulder a while ago after I tore my rotator cuff in
the gym. It hurt a lot... stinging on the front of my shoulder and aching on
the back, day in, day out.
My
doctor told me to rest, which I did, but nothing improved. So, I knew I had to
find something else. After researching on the internet, I found out that it's
possible to cure your shoulder pain with home physiotherapy.
A
few simple stretches and gentle arm exercises is all it takes to stimulate the
shoulder into healing itself, and get yourself back to normal.
*
Stretches - Very easy to do. Encourages joint flexibility, suppleness, range of
motion and proper positioning. Importantly, stretching relieves pain and
promotes healing.
*
Exercises - Also very easy to do. Basic arm exercises (no 100lb dumbbells
here!) strengthen the shoulder's inner muscles, promote regrowth of damaged
tissue, restore any injuries and ultimately relieve pain.
I
was skeptical at first, but when the pain in my shoulders began to fade away, I
persevered and here I am today, pain free and able to swing my arms above my
head with joy.
Physiotherapy
is often what doctors will prescribe for pain in shoulders, but you'll have to
go to a professional physio who'll charge you hundreds or thousands of dollars.
Why not do it yourself at home using the same techniques, and cure your own
shoulder pain, starting today?
After
I cured my shoulder pain, I wrote a book about my experiences, and documented
everything I learned about the special stretches and exercises I'd uncovered

Pain
in Your Shoulder? Discover the Best Solution Now
Pain
in your shoulder can ruin your life. I should know, I suffered from a shoulder
injury a while ago and was out of action for weeks before I managed to stop the
pain.
I
hurt my shoulder in the gym, and ended up with a sharp, stinging pain in the
front of my shoulder, and a dull aching pain in the rear. Plus, I couldn't do
all the things that we all normally do during the day - carrying shopping,
wearing a backpack, reaching high shelves... even shaking hands was difficult!
But
it's not all bad news. Through days and weeks of research, I discovered that
the best solution for pain in your shoulder is physiotherapy.
BUT,
you don't have to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars an hour on a
professional physiotherapist - you can easily do it yourself, at home, in your
spare time.
That's
what I did for the pain in my shoulder. I spent a few minutes every day going
through a specific set of stretches and exercises and felt better almost
instantly.
*
Stretches - to loosen the shoulder, restore flexibility and range of motion and
relieve pain
* Exercises - to promote healing, restore and strengthen damaged tissues and
relieve pain
It
really is as easy as that to treat and relieve pain in the shoulder. Sports
professionals have been relying on physiotherapy for years, as have medical
professionals. The majority of shoulder injuries can be quickly resolved at
home in a few weeks through some basic rehabilitation, just like I described
above.
And
it works no matter how old you are, for most injuries and types of pain, and
even for long term (so called "chronic" shoulder pain).
The
alternatives to physio are popping loads of painkiller pills for the rest of
your life, expensive and potentially dangerous surgery, or just putting up with
it. None of those options are very good, but home physiotherapy really is the
best solution for pain in shoulders.
And
that's exactly how I cured my shoulder pain. Afterwards, I wrote a book about
my experiences, and documented everything I learned about the special stretches
and exercises I'd uncovered during my research.

Ernestine,
a mother of three, recently conquered her battle with sleeplessness.
She’d
always had problems sleeping since she was in
college. Back then, she worked a shift-based job to support herself.
So,
Ernestine had to pull “all-nighters” to catch up with her studies,
and worked at odd hours.
“This
went on for 5 years,” she says. “I’d be up and about when everyone else was
asleep…and every day felt like a blur.”
When
she got married and had kids, her sleep patterns didn’t improve. Between raising a
family, working at the office and spending time with her husband, Ernestine had
even less time sleeping.
She
explains, “Now that my kids are all in college, I’ve had more time to myself.
But all those years of poor sleep have made it hard for me to get a good night’s rest.”
Ernestine
found herself tossing and turning in bed, no matter how hard she tried to
relax. “I never really complained over the years about not getting enough sleep,” she shares.
“So,
it’s kind of weird that it’s only been now that I’ve been feeling cranky. It’s
probably because I know I’ve got more time to sleep…but actually can’t.”
That
was when she looked up a sleep specialist named Dr. Davidson. After several
consultations, he and Ernestine mapped out some lifestyle and behavioral
changes she could start doing.
The
surprising part was that Dr. Davidson didn’t prescribe her any
medication. Instead, he had her go on natural sleep remedies while sticking to the other
new changes he recommended.
In
about three months, Ernestine gradually turned the tide. With her new set of sleep-promoting habits and natural remedies, she
was able to sleep 8-9 hours straight for the first time in a LONG
time.
Sleep, The Natural
Way
Getting
good shut-eye at night is crucial for us to function properly. Rest gives us
the chance to recover from a rough day.
The
National Sleep Foundation says that adults need anywhere between 7-9 hours
of sleep.
This
baseline range gives your body time to repair itself. It also helps your brain
to clear waste, as well as improve learning and memory-related functions.
But
the reality is that, for one reason or another, millions of people like
Ernestine are deprived of this basic need. This can wear down one’s health and
create more significant problems later on.
In
a study entitled “Drowsy Driving and Automobile Crashes,” The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration found that millions of people fall
asleep at the wheel, leading to fatal accidents.
The
good news is that you don’t have to suffer any longer – it comes down to
modifying your daily habits and using natural sleep methods.
This
way, you can stay alert and energized throughout the day, ready to take on any
challenge.
Here are some of
the best ways to fall asleep without taking the pharmaceutical route:
Enjoy Quality,
Uninterrupted Sleep Tip #1: Scents for Slumber
Most
people’s first response to sleeplessness is by washing down some pills. But our
body has built-in mechanisms for falling asleep, and it’s just a matter
of triggering them.
For
instance, your sense of smell is a powerful tool that can help you fall asleep.
We take for granted that the nose provides a direct route to the deepest parts
of the brain.
In
particular, your olfactory nerve is directly connected to limbic system and
amygdala, which is in charge of emotional regulation and memory-related
functions.
So,
the right scents can trigger feelings or even serve as a catalyst for
long-buried memories.
A
whiff of a particular perfume might remind you of your significant other…
…and
a batch of blueberry muffins will flood you with happy memories of baking them
at home with your parents.
This
fundamental principle is the basis of aromatherapy, a type of natural
healing that offers many benefits.
Through
essential oils, you can instantly snap out of a bad mood, unwind after a long
day, deal with indigestion or get rid of a nasty cold much faster.
The
great thing about this is that you won’t experience any of the adverse effects
that come with sleeping pills. A study from the University of Minnesota didn’t
find any side effects after administering essential oils (such as lavender in
particular) to help the participants fall asleep.
Other
essential oils suited for sleep include bergamot, eucalyptus, frankincense,
clary sage, sandalwood and valerian root.
Enjoy Quality,
Uninterrupted Sleep Tip #2: Eat Tryptophan-Rich Foods
Tryptophan
is a compound that can help you doze off because it acts as a building block
for feel-good chemicals such as serotonin.
This
neurotransmitter is a huge mood-booster and puts you in a relaxed state. Also,
tryptophan is transformed into melatonin, a hormone critical for
better sleep.
But
here’s the thing – your body can’t create this amino acid on its own.
Tryptophan needs to come from external sources, such as chicken (and other
types of poultry like turkey), dairy (milk, cheese and yogurt), eggs and fish.
But
it’s better to consume a minimal amount of carbohydrates along with foods that
contain tryptophan. Your body has an easier time absorbing tryptophan when
carbs are in your bloodstream as well.
Enjoy Quality,
Uninterrupted Sleep Tip #3: Take More Magnesium
Research
from the University of Geneva found that this mineral provides many benefits,
including sleeping better at night. Aside from that,
magnesium also helps manage hormones, relaxes the brain and muscles, calms your
nerves, promotes better digestion, and even protects your heart.
Like
tryptophan, the best way to get your magnesium fix is through food. Asparagus,
beet greens, cauliflower, garlic, bananas, almonds and oatmeal are excellent
examples of magnesium-rich foods that can help you sleep.
Pumpkin
seeds are particularly effective. Aside from magnesium, it also
contains zinc which helps with emotional well-being and protects your
cells.
Enjoy Quality,
Uninterrupted Sleep Tip #4: Teatime is Good for Bedtime
Drinking
is also a form of aromatherapy, thanks to the ambient aroma from certain types.
But of course, herbal teas also appeal to your sense of taste –
and trigger your natural sleep mechanisms.
Like
coffee, tea is a widely consumed beverage around the world. However, it has a
lower caffeine content which makes it suitable to drink even during the late
afternoon.
For
those who want to sleep at night, there are certain types of tea designed for
that. You can make a ritual out of this (also vital to good sleep, which we’ll discuss further in a bit)
and use tea as a means of telling your body and mind to unwind.
Teas
which contain the following ingredients seem to work the best, such as:
·Arborvitae
Seed
·Ashwagandha
·Blackberry
leaves
·Cardamom
·Chamomile
flowers
·Fennel
·Hawthorn
·Hibiscus
·Lavender
flowers
·Lemon
balm
·Lemongrass
·Lemongrass
·Nutmeg
·Orange
blossoms
·Peppermint
·Peppermint
leaves
·Poria
Paradicis
·Rose

·Rosebuds
·Sage
·Schizandra
Fruit
·Skullcap
·Sour

·Spearmint

Uninterrupted Sleep Tip #5: Clean Up Your Other Habits
It’s
not just what you put in your body, but also what you do before
bedtime.
Babies
and smaller kids have cues before going to sleep, like turning off the lights
and having a bottle. These make up rituals which signal their brain that it’s
time to hit the sack.
As
a grown-up, you should also have your own rituals to help you prepare for
sleep. Plus, your environment needs to be conducive for rest.
Doing
all of these sets the stage for better sleep. Here are some basic guidelines
you can follow:
Do
something relaxing, like listening to music. According to a study
conducted in the U.K., reading is especially good at reducing stress and
disengaging your mind from stressful thoughts.
For
maximum effect, it’s best to keep any activities not related to sleep outside
the bedroom.
This
creates a stronger association in your mind that your bed is only for sleeping.
No
electronics or screen time two hours before bedtime. Devices emit a blue
light similar to sunlight which messes with your ability to produce melatonin.
Humans operate on a circadian rhythm, and bright lights basically tell our
bodies to stay awake.
Keep
your bedroom nice and dark. Eliminate all sources of noise and other
distractions. Make sure your bed is comfy, so get a good mattress, and pillows
that adequately support your neck. Keep your room 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit,
which is the ideal range for falling asleep.
Routine
is essential! In the book, "Why We Sleep," Dr. Mathew Walker
says that our demanding lifestyle is the biggest disruption to our natural
sleeping rhythms. And he states that this lack of sleep has “a catastrophic
impact on our health, our life expectancy, our safety, our productivity, and
the education of our children.”
This
is why you need to take back your sleep by establishing a fixed time to go to
bed.
Decide
on a specific time you want to get up every day, then work your way backward
about 8 hours to find your ideal bedtime. Sometimes, quality sleep is a
matter of putting your foot down and giving yourself boundaries.
Although
it will take some time and effort to adjust to a new sleep routine (and the
habits that come with it), you’ll find that it’s worth it.
For
one thing, your memory will be a lot better. Sleepless nights lead to drawing a
blank during the day. Your brain needs enough time to organize, store and
optimize memories that you accumulate over time.
Most
of us have an “out of sight, out of mind” approach when it comes to our food
habits.
We
don’t pay it much attention now, but mindless eating has life-threatening implications.
In
a recent study, The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD) said that about 75% of the people in the United States will be
obese by 2020.

"Stress is the trash of modern life - we all generate it, but
if you don't dispose of it properly, it will pile up and overtake your life.” ―
Danzae Pace
Did
you know that deep in your gut lies a highly
sophisticated network made up of hundreds of millions of nerve cells
and neurons?
The
stomach, as well as the small and large intestine, collectively form what’s
known as the gut. And inside the
layers of your gut, you’ll find that
bafflingly complex neural network.
What’s
even more amazing is that this superhighway inside your gut directly
connects to your central nervous system.
Structurally
speaking, this network is roughly the same as a cat’s brain. And there’s enough
neuron diversity to rival that of a pig’s brain.
This
is what doctors call the enteric nervous system (ENS). While this “little brain”
inside your gut shares a
connection with your big brain, it also works independently.
The
ENS quietly runs show the down below, telling your digestive
system
what to do. It’s in charge of crucial metabolic functions that help you break
down food and utilize their energy.
Furthermore,
this little brain also controls your gut barrier which is a layer of mucus,
acid, enzymes, a protective cell wall and trillions of friendly bacteria. This
layer is your first line of defense against unfriendly invaders like toxic
substances or bacteria.
On
a broader scale, most folks don’t realize nor appreciate the incredibly
complicated processes happening in this crucial region.
For
one thing, they don’t understand the effect of specific foods on
their gut.
What
we eat is ultimately absorbed in that region, creating a chain reaction in our
body.
Certain
types of food will set off a series of either positive or negative events which
start at the gut. Soon enough, your brain and the rest of your body will feel
the effects of your food choices.
It feeds
friendly bacteria in your gut, which in turn, allows them to do their job
and flood your system with those feel-good neurotransmitters.
Not
only that, a balanced gut means better
immunity
(i.e., a stronger gut barrier) which adds up to a happier, healthier you.
Relieve Stress and
Anxiety - Here are the Top 20 Superfoods to Keep Your Gut and Brain Happy:
#1: Asparagus
This
vegetable is high in folic
acid which can help relieve
symptoms of depression. Asparagus also contains protein, vitamin A,
thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin C, vitamin K, calcium,
magnesium and copper.
#2: Avocado
This
fruit is rich in
heart-friendly monounsaturated fat. It also contains vitamin B which benefits
your nerves and brain cells, and reduces
stress.
Potassium helps by lowering
your blood pressure.
Omega-3
fatty acids are one of nature’s top antidepressants. They’re crucial for brain
health
and regulate stress-related hormones such as cortisol.
#6: Spinach
Leafy
greens aren’t just great for dealing with oxidative
stress,
but also for making you feel like a million bucks. You have magnesium to thank
for that – this mineral also keeps your stress hormones in check.
#7: Coconut
This
superfood is rich in MCTs, or medium-chain triglycerides, which are an
excellent fuel for your brain and body. It also has antioxidant properties
which heal your immune system and protect your mind. Best of all, MCTs are
excellent at improving your digestion and overall mood.
#8: Thyme
Thyme
is a famous herb known for its healing effects, especially when it comes to
respiratory conditions like bronchitis. It’s also known for fighting cancer
because of its plant-based compound called carvacrol. Thyme is an excellent
antidepressant as it promotes dopamine and serotonin production.
This
one contains magnesium which reduces stress and anxiety by naturally decreasing
muscle tension. It's also rich in zinc, another mineral that keeps you cheerful
and regulates your emotions.
#11: Eggs
Often
labeled as "nature's perfect food," eggs are jam-packed
with vitamins B12 and protein. They’re a great
mood booster
too, thanks to the L-Tryptophan and choline. These trigger the production of
feel-good neurotransmitters like acetylcholine.
#12: Ghee
Also
known as clarified butter, ghee is associated with ancient medicine. It can
heal your gut and promote proper digestion, thanks mostly to butyric acid.
Better digestion leads to a better emotional state – this makes ghee one of the
top anti-depression foods.
#13: Kiwi Fruit
This
is full of vitamin C which boosts immunity, along with zeaxanthin and lutein
which are good for the eyes. It also improves digestion and helps you
metabolize food more efficiently. Its antioxidants are great at reducing free
radicals which accumulate from the stress from daily life.
#14: Turkey
Like
the other amino acid-rich foods on this list, turkey promotes neurotransmitter
production. This includes serotonin, which is a great mood-booster. If you’re
wondering why everyone’s so chill after Thanksgiving, it just might be this
famous holiday dish.
#15: Dark
Chocolate
Chocolate
in general is known to improve one’s emotional state, but the dark variety is
healthier. It contains excellent antioxidants which fight
cancer
and help you feel better. Remember, the key is to consume this in moderate
amounts to avoid
spiking your blood sugar levels.
#16: Garlic
This
is well-known cancer-fighting food, and it contains good stuff like
phytonutrients and antioxidants. It’s also full of heart and
brain-boosting minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese,
potassium and zinc.
#17: Cashew Nuts
This
makes for a tasty snack that does more than satisfy your taste buds. It also
provides proper amounts of protein and zinc which reduces anxiety and stress.
#18: Yogurt
When
it comes to good gut health, probiotics is the name of
the game. This food is rich in friendly bacteria that benefits your gut. By
having a serving of yogurt, you can replenish your all-important intestinal
flora which is crucial to excellent digestion. Plus, a healthy gut allows your
body to produce those neurotransmitters to keep you happy.
#19: Turmeric
This
is an ancient spice that has potent healing properties. For instance, it's
effective at fighting free radicals which damage cells and cause cancer. It’s
also rich in anti-inflammatory compounds – this is important in preventing
anything from heart problems to brain disease like dementia.
The
unique aroma from this spice has been known to reduce stress and anxiety. Not
only that, a small amount of cinnamon packs a potent serving of antioxidants
which lower
the risk of cancer. Better yet, it’s also excellent at keeping
your blood sugar levels stable. This, in turn, manages insulin
production and prevent illnesses like diabetes and cancer.
Don’t let Stress
(or Disease) Dictate Your Life
The
sooner you make these foods a part of your regular diet, the easier you can
manage your stress levels - especially during a crazy day.
However,
it’s also crucial that you make changes to your general lifestyle, such as your
eating habits.
And
while eating these calming foods is the start of a healthier, low-stress
lifestyle…
…it's
also vital to understand how our food choices affect us on
a larger scale.
A
reasonable, nourishing diet can provide you with the necessary nutrients,
vitamins and minerals.
Too
often, we’re seduced by the allure of cheap,
convenient processed food. They’re readily available and seem to
fit our busy lives, but we’re overlooking its consequences.
Sugar-laden
treats like donuts and soda, for instance, trigger conditions like insulin
resistance which leads to obesity and other life-threatening issues.
Meanwhile,
deep-fried fast food sends our triglyceride levels through the roof and pollute
our bloodstream with harmful fats.
Most
of us take these clear and present dangers for granted, and we’re paying a high
price for it.
