To KALE With It! The Miracle Wave 's Featured Recipe: Tuscan Kale Salad

It's one of the most common side effects we see in patients before they begin seeking The Miracle Wave ™ therapy--Inflammation.

Inflammation is the number one cause of arthritis, heart disease and a number of autoimmune diseases. 

It's a condition that can be triggered by the consumption of animal products, and can be very debilitating for individuals who don't take the necessary steps (such as changing their diets or engaging in exercise) to live a healthier lifestyle. 

Kale is among the most nutrient-dense commonly eaten vegetables. 

One cup provides 1,327% of your Daily Value (DV) for vitamin K, 192% for vitamin A and 88% for vitamin C.

Not only is it jam-packed with vitamins, kale is an incredibly effective anti-inflammatory food, which can potentially prevent and even help reverse these inflammation-related illnesses.

"Whip It, Whip It Good!" The Miracle Wave Explains Whiplash

Whiplash is a non-medical term for a condition that develops when the neck and head move swiftly forward and then backward (similar to the motion of someone cracking a whip). This sudden force results in the normal range of motion being surpassed and causes injury to the soft tissues (muscle, ligament and discs) of the neck. 

Based on our experience at The Miracle Wave ™,  people have usually associated whiplash with car accidents. These injuries, however, can also occur from a slip and fall on the ice, sports injuries and even being assaulted. Common symptoms of whiplash may include:

- neck pain
- headache
- shoulder pain & stiffness
- dizziness
- fatigue
- jaw pain
- arm pain or weakness
- visual disturbance
- ringing of the ears
- depression

In a more severe and chronic case of Whiplash Associated Disorder symptoms may include:

- depression
- anger
- frustration
- anxiety
- stress
- drug dependency
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- insomnia

There are, however, available treatments for whiplash to help relieve the pain (since whiplash is known to heal on its own given time).

1. Ice your neck.
To reduce the pain and swelling, apply ice as soon as you realize you might have a neck injury. Do this for 20-30 minutes every 3-4 hours over the next few days. Be sure to wrap the ice in a towel or washcloth to prevent damage or additional pain to your skin.

2. Take painkillers or other drugs.
When recommended by your doctor, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen (Advil) or naproxen (Aleve) can help with diminishing swelling and pain. Keep in mind, though-- these over-the-counter medications can have side effects, so try not to use them regularly. Additionally, check with your doctor before taking NSAIDs of any kind especially if you are already taking other prescriptions for any of preexisting medical conditions. If these don't seem to work, you may need to see a doctor who can prescribe stronger painkillers or even muscle relaxants if necessary.

3. Use a neck brace or collar.
To aid in supporting your neck or simply holding your head up straight, your physician may recommend a neck brace or collar to use until you begin feeling better. While neck braces can help when used sparingly, they aren't intended for long term use (because they can actually weaken the muscles in your neck).

4. Seek a non-invasive solution to help alleviate your pain.
Treatments involving similar technology to Acoustic Wave Therapy ( AWT ) for the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders have recently been recognized by healthcare providers globally as an effective, therapeutic solution.

The Miracle Wave ™ in particular is one device that has shown beneficial results for helping to alleviate musculoskeletal aches and pains such as whiplash, while temporarily increasing local blood circulation.  The Miracle Wave ™ works by sending low-energy pulses into the affected area of a patient's injury, which in turn can stimulate the body's bio-healing effects naturally.

Ultimately, the goal of seeking treatment for whiplash should be to effectively repair the injured muscles and/or the damaged ligaments in your neck. While allowing your injury to heal on its own may be a reasonable action, it could take days, months or even years to feel virtually pain-free again. This is why The Miracle Wave ™ could be a much more effective (as well as affordable) solution for you.

If YOU or someone you know is currently suffering from whiplash ask your healthcare provider or an experienced medical professional whether The Miracle Wave ™ could be the ideal answer to relieving your pain TODAY or CLICK HERE to visit our web site NOW.
