When she has pain, she stops taking her supplements and uses medication to reduce her spasm. It is a real dilemma for her because she really is in pain, and she believes that it is not good to experience pain. Unfortunately, by blocking the pain with an inappropriate medication she is keeping herself from getting healed. And so she is going back and forth, keeping herself at precisely the level where she is bound to have the pain. Some natural ways to ease healing reactions When healing reactions are very troublesome, we can usually do something to help.
Some herbal remedies relieve symptoms without interfering with the healing process.
For example, white willow bark contains a different chemical form of salicylic acid than aspirin, so that it blocks only the inflammation chain of the prostagiandin and not the healing chain. This illustrates why natural substances are preferable to synthetic drugs in the long run. The dosage of certain supplements can also be adjusted to slow down the rate at which the healing process takes place. When my clients have uncomfortable strong healing reactions, I cut down on the dosage of some of their tissue extracts. This slows down the healing process.
