Natural Help For Sciatica
This article was originally posted at http://www.apple-a-day-clinic.com/Health_and_Nutrition_Blog?m8:post=natural-help-for-sciatica
If you have ever experienced sciatica you know that it is absolutely excruciating. Nerve pain of any kind is extremely painful and can take months to truly settle down.
The sciatic nerve is the largest single nerve in the human body; it runs from each side of the lower spine through deep in the buttock into the back of the thigh and all the way down to the foot.
It serves a vital role in connecting the spinal cord with the leg and foot muscles.
Sciatic nerve pain is very common and if is not treated in time, the pain can reach a higher level of intensity which can be completely immobilizing that is why it is recommended to receive treatment sooner rather than later. I perform acupuncture regularly for sciatica and it works wonderfully. I find that sciatica usually stems from overwork and weakness in the body causing the discs of the spinal column to become unstable, shift, and ultimately press on the sciatic nerve. Treatment is necessary to correct all this but sometimes it is impossible to get into the clinic on an emergency basis.
Luckily, there is a natural remedy, garlic milk that can help you to reduce the pain as well the inflammation of sciatica. This remedy can be prepared at home with things you probably have on hand.
Ingredients:
– 5 cloves garlic
– Honey
– 1 cup almond or rice milk
Preparation:
Remove the peel from the garlic.
Once you have done that you will prepare a garlic puree, mix it with the vegetable milk of your choice and then add the honey.
All this should be mixed well until you get a homogeneous substance.
Use:
This remedy can be taken either cold or hot, and it is advisable to ingest 8 ounces of garlic milk per day. This amount can be divided into two parts.
It is important to know that this treatment does not replace any medicine recommended by a specialist or treatment as it will recur if the cause isn’t addressed and remedied.
Garlic milk has a lot of vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and C, and minerals like potassium, phosphorus, manganese, calcium, zinc, selenium and copper, plus proteins, flavonoids , enzymes and antioxidants so it helps us treat diseases such as asthma, also controls cough, regulates cholesterol, relieves fatty liver and strengthens our immune system.
