AVP Heal Pain Balm is formulated with natural ingredients from Siddha-Ayurvedic tradition, often including herbs known for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It’s designed to provide relief from localized pain, such as your lower back issues. To apply it effectively, massage a small amount of balm gently onto the affected area until it’s absorbed, doing this 2-3 times daily. The warmth generated by massaging helps enhance circulation, allowing the balm’s active ingredients to penetrate deeper into tissues.
But remember, chronic pain often signifies an imbalance in your doshas, likely a predominant vata issue since it controls movements and is related to chronic tension and spasms. Alongside the balm, incorporating a routine of gentle stretching exercises can help in maintaining flexibility and reducing stiffness — moves focusing on the lower back and surrounding muscles. Consider practicing specific yoga poses such as Bhujangasana (Cobra pose) or Salabhasana (Locust pose) which can align with your body’s needs in this case.
As for side effects, the balm is typically safe, being plant-based, but a patch test is wise to check for skin sensitivity.
In addition, pay attention to your diet and lifestyle. Consuming warm, nourishing foods could soothe vata imbalances. Avoid excessive cold and raw foods which might aggravate symptoms. Hydration is also important — drink warm water or herbal teas, and practice mindful breathing exercises to further calm vata.
If the pain persists or worsens, seeking a consultation with a healthcare provider is best as underlying issues might require more comprehensive treatment. The goal is to address both symptoms and the root cause, ensuring sustained relief and balance.
