Anxiety is one of the most common symptoms worldwide, where our sympathetic nervous system is in a state of heightened alert!! 

The fight or flight response that is amazing at ensuring our survival.

But it's not so great when it’s constantly turned on. Our bodies can’t go into a rest or relax and chill out state to sleep, focus at work or school, and play with our children, or spend quality time with our families. 

We're going to discuss the top and doctor approved essential oils and aromatherapy for headaches, myofascial pain, muscle pain, muscle spasms, muscle tension, and fibromyalgia!

Aromatherapy refers to the therapeutic use of essential oils through topical application or inhalation (not ingestion!!). The current evidence for utilizing aromatherapy to manage pain is growing (Lakhan et al. 2016).

I’ve been hearing so much venting from my colleagues, patients, and friends that this constant stress and anxiety has us in a bind - creating new symptoms of insomnia, palpitations, anger, overeating, a constant buzzing/shaking feeling, constipation, abdominal bloating or even abdominal pain, and chronic fatigue.

How To Get Better Sleep To Cure Pain & Increase Energy? So we left off from episode #20 where we discussed how sleep can worsen pain and vice versa, as well as the importance of sleep to ward off and prevent pain. We talked about how sleep and stress are the #1 triggers of pain. But what I may have failed to mention is that stress may be the #1 trigger of sleepless nights! That’s why it’s so important to focus on stress, anxiety, and our mental health in order to achieve the deep and healthy sleep we need to stay healthy.

HI Hipsters, welcome to the Health Is PowHer Podcast Episode #19, I’m your host Dr. Anna and I’m super uber excited to talk about fibromyalgia as I have had the most crazy experience dealing with this crazy achey burning muscle and joint pain. In our previous pain episodes, we figured out I developed this immediately after a flu shot likely due to a neuroimmune challenge from my past history with polyglandular autoimmune syndrome. But I had no idea it could be that freaking PAINFUL!
