Herbs for the Musculoskeletal System: Acute Issues

Tissue - Bones - Pain

Pain is an indicator that something is not right. When we get to the root cause the pain can go away.
 

How to address acute issues before they become chronic!

Muscle issues often come up in acute, first aid situations, which may present themselves in overuse, repetitive injury, hyperextension, and general tension. This tension can also affect the surrounding tissues, preventing incorrect broken bone mending and in cases of atrophy and wasting. In this class you’ll also learn how to assist those with diabetic neuropathy by addressing circulation and tissue death in the lower extremities, and much more!
