Effective Natural Remedies for Muscle Health and Recovery

What's surprising me is that the muscles are responding rapidly. I've only drunk it for 4 or 5 days and there's already a noticeable difference. Thought it would take 6 months!

Thank you for the insights that remedies is not working. In advanced cases this happens and I may need to explain when it doesn't work. The remedies I posted are general home remedies.

Advanced disease and cases you should consult an appropriate physician for an underlying serious condition.

I once remembered a case who complained of something as innocent as muscles and joint pain where magnesium is not working as it turns out the person had a serious case of metastatic bone cancer.

In another case, another person complained of a severe joint and muscle pain upon looking at the blood test results, it turns out that the uric acid concentration to be very high. Taking appropriate uric dissolving supplements cured the condition. In another case, also a bad muscle and joint pain, upon looking at hair mineral analysis, the blood copper and boron was almost nonexistent. An appropriate supplementation stopped the condition.

And even in another case of an accident victim had serious muscle sprain and to stopped that condition required that the person had to take a lot of digestive enzymes need to digest the muscle sprains abnormalities. In fact certain pharmaceutical preparations does in fact have digestive enzymes in their formulation for muscle pain.

Therefore, I believe if more appropriate information is given regarding blood tests, liver tests, hair mineral analysis, and urinary pH and salivary pH, it gives me great opportunity to find the cause of the issue in a more straight forward fashion.

At the moment I am pretty much left to throwing darts with a blindfold on due to lack of specific information for a specific case. Even in another case of joint pain I found that the real pain came from the movements of the leg, that issue was resolved by glucosamine sulfate.

And yet another case of a diabetic with severe muscle pain, that was resolved with magnesium with plenty of acetyl carnosine. The existence of muscle pain came from glycating muscle tissues and blood clotting features, resulting in limited blood flow, and hence a small amount EDTA was used along with vitamin E. Vitamin E reduces the oxygen demand for muscles resulting in reduce muscle pain and greater antioxidant properties. There was one interesting case where none of the supplement worked at all, upon looking at background information I found large stomach and slow digestive process, which indicated to be a large buildup of biofilms and mucus in the intestinal system. Appropriate measures for standard detoxed and castor oil to clear the system made the supplements worked, but only if the supplements were in powdered form.

Regarding your condition this would really help me if more information was provided in order to solve this problem. One case I found heavy metal poisoning, another was due to constipation, and yet another was due to spinal column blockage, which all leads to muscle sprains. Therefore there are two ways out of this as I can imagine, more background information concerning the condition, or see an appropriate physician.. If I were to guess as to why this is not working, it would appear that digestive enzymes were not use and the issue of alkalization was not pursued enough.

Perhaps the most interesting experience I ever had regarding muscle and joint pain had to do with one case where while magnesium did help somewhat, but the pain was still severe. I looked at the results of the blood test and found low red blood cells count as the cause. People might wonder how the red blood cells relates to persistent muscle pain. It is really quite simple, if there is lack of red blood cell, you have a condition what is known as hypoxia, where there is not enough blood to supply oxygen to the extremities of the body, especially the leg. When there is insufficient oxygen, the cells starve for oxygen, there's a buildup of carbon dioxide and lactic acid as a result. To increase blood count, 1/8 teaspoon of chlorophyll with iron supplements (the person also had low blood iron) was given. Chlorophyll has a molecular structure similar to blood cells with the exception of the magnesium instead of the iron. The iron supplements will replace with magnesium to become red blood cells. It was taken 1-2 times a day for a couple of days. Within a week, the pale bloodless face became fresh and the muscle pain was reduced. Yet in another case a check of blood work revealed high fats, which blocked the blood circulation. As a result granulated lecithin and avoidance of fatty oily foods was initiated and that helped greatly in restoring circulation and muscle pain which included both the back, neck and leg area. As to my own condition, I didn't have a muscle pain, it existed on the back of my neck. Obviously magnesium didn't work, neither did massage or other supplements. I therefore decided to do Solfeggio frequency. That helped only briefly, but what cured my neck ache which originated from the muscles was a cat's purr. Obviously I had a problem of vibrational imbalance in my body and the cat's purr helped completely my neck pain.

The one other possible remedy to try is 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in 2 tablespoon of lime juice three times a day in 1 glass of water. This should have the needed potassium and sufficient alkalinity to resolve the problem. And if 3 or 4 days had no improvement I would either go see the doctor or get more analysis regarding blood tests, liver tests, spinal manipulations and hair mineral analysis. Home remedies isn't design to cure of advance cases of disease, that's the job of the doctors! If a conditions is Nay, it helps that a person give more diagnostic information. My favorite is urinary and salivary pH, hair mineral analysis, blood and liver tests, constipation, medicines presently taken. For example, if you take celebrex chances are good the the pain came from that medicine regarding muscle pains - it contains fluorine which makes the conditions worse. My remedy for celebrex "muscle pain" requires borax remedy - which removes the fluorine found in the celebrex out from the system. lol.

It should be obvious by now that I have barely scratched the surface to find the remedy for advanced joint and muscle pains. And if I were to write most every aspect of this condition, I have to write a very long thesis for this condition, and this is not really physically possible, especially with a huge backlog of emails I have already. Medicine is an art, it's rarely a science.

Anyway, be prepared! We ARE talking about reconnecting the brain to motor function so that might get kinda wacky and you want to make sure you have something sturdy to hang onto between the bed and the bathroom - you may need it!!

Your gut feeling was diluted and negated by the brainwashing of our society by so-called authority figures and "expert" status of doctors and other medical specialists virtue signaling their 'trust me' knowledge. Ask any one of them what they learned in medical school about nutrition, and they will say about one chapter from one book.

Current example: NY governor Como, killing thousands of healthy elders by dumping them in nursing homes where many suffer from severely compromised health. He wore it as a badge of honor and said, "...We did a beautiful thing in those hospitals..."

Pray for others who will unwittingly will fall prey to these quacks.

you just take a cotton sock and put some raw rice in it - and sew or tie off the other end - then put it either in the freezer for cold packs or in the microwave for a couple of minutes for warm moist heat packs.

then you drape it around your neck! works great!

of course you can also use flax seeds, buckwheat seeds, etc. - but as most people have rice around - this is easy to make in a hurry!

corn works too!

enjoy!

2 liters of absolute alcohol (from the chemist)
1 big brunch of Arnica
2 avocado seeds, grated
50g of cloves
50g of black pepper
10 Camphor tablets

-Put everything in a glass jar with a lid and let it rest for at least 4 days. Then move the liquid [only to little bottles. Try to place them in different locations (safe & away from kids), so you can remember to apply several times a day. You must apply the remedy on the affected area AT LEAST 5 times a day. The success of the treatment depends on your own discipline and consistency. I know many success stories of family and friends that used this remedy and got hid of problems that doctors or physiotherapists couldn't help. It's been a blessing in the life of many people. Be persistent and good luck!

PS. The recipe is from South America and I have no idea how easy/difficult is to find the ingredients in other countries. I am sorry I am unable to advise on any substitutions.

If you google "nightshade plants, symptoms" and read about this...you might just want to give it a try. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Good luck!

For your immediate discomfort, raw unpastuerized apple cider vinegar, topically, may help (believe it or not! ) We have seen it help muscle trouble very quickly. You can put it on a cloth and apply it to the uncomfortable place, for a few minutes or even a few hours. Castor oil, topically, is another option. Peppermint essential oil is also a good short term solution to muscle discomfort.

I agree with Ed that alkalizing your body and walking or jogging daily are very important.

There are a number of remedies on the Muscle Ailment page here at Earth Clinic if you haven't seen that yet. I think the Coconut Oil and Blackstrap Molasses would be good places to start.

I would make sure your shoes are not aggravating your back.

If you are even a little dehydrated, your pain will be worse. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water (2 quarts) daily. (Coffee and soda don't count as they will likely aggravate your condition. ) Sugar also tends to increase pain.

Please let us know what helps you. I hope you are pain free soon!

You have progressive right back lower muscle pain extending upward over time...

I like all the different suggestions but let me give you another possible one ... well two. If you have not had muscle pain around the body before and assuming your leg muscle strength demonstrates there is no MS or MD issue... My HUNCH is your pelvis is out. Low back right pelvis can emanate upward and pinch the dorsal nerves causing stiffness or spasms up the side of the back. Or if not the pelvis out, there may be some bulging or pinching in the dorsal and that could be causing the same. Stiffness can be a form of spasming. By spasming I don't necessarily mean contractions and release. A spasm can be simply a hardening or tightening.

Here's a test to see if perhaps the vertebrae sublaxation might be causing the muscle tightening.

Lie on your stomach. Have someone who has some upper body strength to press against your beltline (pelvis) with about forty pounds of pressure. As he pushes (basically holding the pelvis as firmly down as he can without pushing through you).... Put your hands under your shoulders and as if you were doing a push up, push gently letting the lower back (vertebrae) come upward while the pelvis is in place. That first push should be just five or six inches and then after staying in that up position and getting used to the pressure, again press upward another inch or two.

Let your helper hold and you hold that posture for fifteen seconds. Repeat if you can. It really feels great for a bad back that is pelvis related tilted to one side.

If you feel some real lower back pain in the pelvis as he is pushing and as you lift up, then it is likely that your problem is a vertebrae curvature/ pinching/spasm issue.

This exercise daily for a week, if you suspect that the lower back might be the cause, should bring substantial release of the muscle spasm within that week. You should not sit on "cushy" couches which cause you to slouch or in cars with little back support.

The point is: You may have this low back problem and never put together the spasm of back muscles but the two might be directly related.

Someone familiar with pressure point therapy could use pressure points to tell in five minutes if the two are related. If you are not familiar with pressure point therapy, the helper, while you are on floor face down, takes his finger and presses gently at first into the area from which pain seems to radiate. I am guessing that the stressed muscle on right back are sore but one place is far more sore than anywhere. Now find that spot, trace the pain, usually along a nerve line. Usually that pain traces to a rib and or vertebrae. Then the helper could press for 30 seconds at about ten pounds of pressure and let up. Repeat twenty minutes later and I've found that the intense pain has reduced by half. Upon finding the "source" you could apply any moisture application topically for further relief. Just discussed on Earth Clinic is the use of cabbage leaf! Or any oil that is known for its healing qualities could be rubbed into the tender area.

Now those were two physiological approaches rather than a nutritional one. (The two are not mutually exclusive, but the relation of back muscle to vertebrae and or rib dislocation and pelvis shift is very very very common.)

One last long shot.... You have a kidney stone. Really this is possible. Sometimes a ks will cause lower right or lower left numb like pain, as if a rib is out. And then instead of turning acute, continues to radiate and as it radiates the muscle is subject to spasm. My favorite remedy is glass of putrefied water with juice of half lemon. Do that twelve times in one day... Total 6 lemons. Repeat for 12 days. Stone should pass in five to ten days. I've gotten rid of four stones in past six years or so. Oh, brush teeth after each glass so citric acid won't harm your teeth.

I am totally sold on using Epsom salts for muscle soreness, relaxation and insomnia. And to think I had that box of Epsom Salt under my bathroom sink for almost a decade and could have been using it all along for many purposes. 2012 will be a much easier and healthier year for me with this "new", cheap remedy.

My husband was having the very same problem with the statin drugs and then we found the perfect solution at the health food store. Here is what he takes:

1. red yeast rice--2 per day
2. COQ10--1 per day

The doctor can't believe how good his cholesterol stays now. He said for him to keep up what he was doing. He had never seen anything like it.

Good luck,
Carolyn

The use of ACV with honey is great, but a note of caution for those with borderline diabeties and diabetics due to the sugar in the honey, especially if you don't monitor your sugar levels regularly.

I have had great success with alleviating muscle pain (like after a workout, strenuous activitiy.) Before going to bed take a warm bath and add ACV to the water. Use at least 1 cup and for severe soreness use 3. When you wake up in the morning you will feel great. This tip was passed on to me by a coach who had her team at the start of a new season do this every night after practice. I messed up once by using white vinegar and she informed me only ACV works. Give it a try! Thanks for all the unique remedies. Anita

From Dr. Christopher's own writings on the subject of SCULLCAP:

"This species is the American Scutellaria, also called Virginian Skullcap. It is related to the English species, having similar medicinal properties.

Dr. Vandesveer in 1772 is reputed to have first introduced this plant into the medical world. He claimed that it was curative and prophylactic in canine rabies, reporting 1400 cases. Millspaugh drily comments that this is rather a lot of cases to come to one physician (Mills:470), but also mentions that his son after him claimed to have cured forty cases more in three years. From this use comes one of its common names, Mad-Dog Skullcap. The antihidrotic properties seemed to be actually slight and so many people railed against this use, even many who never tried it themselves. It fell into disrepute when it was adopted by quacks who promoted it by advertising. A Dr. White, however, assured Rafinesque that the plant preserved him from rabies after he was bitten by a dog from whose bite others died. Rafinesque stated his full belief in the prophylactic powers of the plant, adding in his classic work that laymen and physicians claim that the plant never fails to ward off or cure the disease. Veterinary surgeons added their support to this use of the herb. Since it is a member of the Mint family, others of which have been claimed to be antihidrotic, they “should at least be considered under these circumstances”, that is, having been used by the aborigines of various countries for specific uses”, as native medication is always the result of long and more or less successful experiment” (Ibid.).

As late as 1844, a Dr. H.B. Skinner was calling this herb “a sovereign remedy for the hydrophobia or canine madness” (Vog:353). However, his colleague, a Dr. Clapp, reported that few if any physicians had any confidence in its prophylactic powers, although he felt that from its bitterness it might be found useful as a tonic."

I disagree with the suspicion that one doctor treating 1400 cases would have been odd in 1774, I think if you're the only one curing rabies in a new land where it might be pretty common, you're going to have a LOT of cases - and REPEATING cases in a small community where one could contract the disease repeatedly, once a case was cured and the individual stopped treatment.

That said, the first thing I thought about was the trouble with vaccines and, perhaps, its use in reversing the damage BUT...

I started looking at nerve degeneration and got some nerve tincture (also Dr Christopher's) and added it to some of the other things I'd found and was playing with when I noticed there were days when my legs just felt so good and functional and alive. So I was going over all of those tinctures and herbs and discovered a connection between nerve degeneration and motor function so I've been looking into the individual herbs in the nerve tincture and, sure enough, THAT was

I'd also been seeing a lot of videos advertised about "death starting in the legs" and leg weakening being palmed off as "you're just getting older" but WOW!!

I wasn't using the nerve tincture everyday and kept having these bouts of days when my legs felt EXTRA good and found the Nerve tincture was the culprit!! And the improvement was happening every time I used it (just a half dropper under the tongue at a time) ! So it's like it's instantaneous! It wakes up, reconnects, feeds, repairs and, with the scullcap, over time, regenerates the nerves between the brain and the muscles!

So, anyway, I thought ya'll might find that as interesting as I did as there is no "ailment" page here for "aging" and why would there be?Since the issues attributed to aging aren't considered ailments...

Gonna go take my nerve tincture! Have a great DAY!! And get yourself some nervine herbs or tonic or whatever if you're of that age! Or even if you AREN'T!! Because, not only is scullcap reported to cure rabies, it's also reported to PREVENT it! So be sure and get or grow some scullcap for your pets and kids and livestock and SELF!

The way you described that you are taking the liquid magnesium chloride, it sounds like you may be taking it orally? If that is correct, you might have better luck using it topically if what you have is a 50% magnesium chloride solution or less. If it is stronger than a 50% solution, you may have to dilute it or just get or make your own mag oil to 50% magnesium chloride flakes to 50% distilled water. I just applied a 50% solution to my face to make sure it is doable and it seems to be fine. Do not get near the eyes!

My research led me to the problems that were hard to test without help. I further researched the help of the simple household additives namely sodium bicarbonate. After taking half a heaped teaspoonfull of sodium bicarbonate in in half a pint of water on an empty stomach morning and night relief was immediate. My spasms are greately reduced and I can feel my knees getting better every day. I stopped and checked and the problem returned, it then improved with the sodium bicarbonate.

I do think I have a candida overgrowth and that is getting better as well.

I am posting because of all the hunting around I had to do to use a substance with little if any side effects but great benefits.

I saw that as my research went on that more people want to help by selling you something that cost the earth and may eventually give a benefit.

My research cost next to nothing and if it does not work straight away I ask you to keep it up for at least 6 months. I saw relief after a few hours but kept getting relapses until long term relief vindicated by determination that I was on the right track.

The bicarbonate of soda seems to be helping ME attacking the candida and putting my body into an alkaline state to repair itself. No extreme diets or medication I do realise foods that effect me and avoid them but not forever and take note of what my body tells me.

I feel sure there are others out there who see researech costing billions be it for cancer or a dozen different conditions with no relief. Yet to alkalise the body as I have can kill cancer or so I am led to believe yet has little or no side effect and you can administer it to yourself and still seek help.

Long term effects on the body of over acidity or high candida are not recognised or admitted because they are to cheap to treat and conspiracy theories abound. The simple fact is that the care system does not encourage self diagnosis it is too cheap, the system works by long term treatment not cure.

The body heals, not a doctor (they give the assistance in extreme circumstances). Given the right conditions we are amazing creatures, we just need to find the balance out of the over indulgence of our social order.

comments would be appreciated to understand how I have found a simple cheap treatment that works for ME.
