Chronic pain syndrome

Chronic pain syndrome

What does it mean chronic pain syndrome?

The syndrome is called chronic pain and pain is the symptom that most people notice. However pain is not the only symptom. Chronic pain sufferers may experience additional challenging health problems, including:

  • Fatigue
  • Sleep disturbance
  • Decreased appetite
  • Weekend immune system
  • Mood changes

Chronic pain often creates a vicious cycle, where the pain causes sleep disturbances, which result in mood swings, which creates fatigue, which makes pain harder to bear. And on and on…

Chronic pain also impacts your relationships with loved ones and friends.  These problems can often cause emotional difficulties which will lead to further pain symptoms.

 

Do you or a loved one suffer from chronic pain syndrome? Do you want to change that?

One of the many holistic ways to deal with the chronic pain syndrome is Shiatsu.

Many studies have shown that Shiatsu massage helps reduce the intensity and duration of episodes of pain, making it helpful for treating many conditions. It also helps improve blood flow and release chemicals within the body that reduce stress and anxiety and elevate your mood — a lot of benefits for those who suffer from chronic pain!
