Dealing with Chronic Pain Without Pain Killers

Who has a good way of dealing with the chronic pain without pain killers? I eat and take a lot of the natural things they help of course, but my pain is getting more intense.

I absolutely love my oska pulse it’s a pemf (pulsed electromagnetic frequency device) and it consistently and quickly knocks out pain nothing else can. It’s expensive like really expensive but for me beyond worth the investment. It’s electromagnetic waves change the way water moves in and out of cells so it can dehydrate you though so be careful to drink extra water.

I second PEMF helps so much and is really expensive but worth it! I do find if pain is really bad it can increase it while I’m using it but in the long run it helps my overall pain levels. I live on infrared heating pads. UTK brand on Amazon or biomat. Best purchase I’ve ever made and the only thing that really helps drastically with the pain. Best pain supplement I’ve found is PEA (comfort max from life extension) helps decrease pain receptors and bring down inflammation but is similar structure to adderall so research if it’d be good for you first. It helps me be less irritable when pain is especially bad. I was doing cryotherapy for a while and that really helped but lately it’s been way too much for me to drive to do that consistently.

what’s the theory behind the infrared heating pad? Does this work better than a regular heating pad?
