Do you know of alternative chronic back pain treatments??? for a 70 year old woman. she is in bad pain.?
She takes a lot of drugs to get through the day but I would like to find out if there are other options out there even if they are unconventional. I think there should be something.

yoga helps, but for a 70 year old…. probably not….
try heating pads or cool packs

April 24th, 2009 at 7:03 pmThere are alternative pain medications out there, cannabis being one of them.
Below is our states pain management commission, read it over they give advise about pain.

April 24th, 2009 at 7:03 pmI think it depends on what is wrong with her back….if she has a herniated/ruptured disk, or if she has a broken/fused vertebrae, there may be different alternatives. I got myself through a ruptured disk without surgery or very much medication by alot of walking and alot of back stretching…..doctors tend to want to do surgery or prescribe medication, but there are so many natural alternatives available these days….
April 24th, 2009 at 7:03 pmIt really depends on what's going on with her. Is she being treated for a particular injury? Has she had surgery? Etc. Etc. It's not really possible to give specific advice without more information. But in general massage, chiropractic, and acupuncture can all be very effective.
I'm a massage therapist, so of course I believe strongly in the benefits of regular massage. But the most important thing is to find a practitioner who is willing to work with her doctors (for example, it would never be advisable to stop traditional medications suddenly) and look at different alternatives with her. Another question is how open SHE is to the different alternatives.
But again, without knowing what is going on structurally, emotionally, etc., it would be irresponsible for anyone online to do more than let you know that other options do exist.
Please just make sure she had had the proper diagnoses. If she has been through proper diagnoses with traditional medicine, a good acupuncturist might be an excellent place to start.
Best of luck!
