MSM for reducing muscle and tendon inflammation from overuse
During my many years as a licensed massage therapist in Hawaii, I came across many aching muscles. A lot of the times, patients had gone through all kinds of hardships and costly medical check-ups before ending up on on my massage table - still in pain and at their wit's end because no modern Cat scan or MRI machinery found anything wrong with them. Muscles and tendons can mimik so many serious problems in our body, so our fears get caught up with us and we start at the wrong end when trying to find the cause and heal our body.
Remember too much use of one and the same muscle, whether it's playing golf for hours each day or sitting at the computer and clicking the mouse button for many hours or whatever, can lead to an overuse syndrome in a certain muscle or area and cause us lots of pain. When my wife experienced a severe rotator cuff inflammation, which starts with one muscle of the rotator cuff area acting up and the others just 'follow suit', we tried everything we knew from our education as trained massage therapists but always just achieved a short term relief and that was it. She was still able to massage but forget about playing tennis or raising her arm over her head.
Well, you hear about all those miracle healings. After weeks or maybe months of being in pain and suffering, she experienced the healing of her shoulder. A patient of hers told her about this new anti-inflammatory powder MSM, which had just started to get its name out in the world of anti-inflammatory supplements. Glucosamine sulfate was already well known for treating inflammation in the joints and widespread but not many people had even heard about MSM. Anyhow, 14 days taking the regular recommended dose of MSM 3x daily made the miracle happen for my wife's rotator cuff inflammation and made us believers. Ever since, we both have been taking MSM as a daily supplement and also recommended it in our practice to many people. The biggest and fastest results were reported when taking MSM for rotator cuff inflammation from overuse. Before you sign up for rotator cuff surgery, this is how the surgeons make their money, give the MSM a try for 4 - 6 weeks. It can save you from a very invasive surgery.
As I always recommend, make yourself knowledgeable and search on-line under MSM. We prefer the MSM powder. Costco sells MSM capsules at affordable prices. Again when you are facing inflammation in muscles and tendons, you want to stick with the MSM by itslelf. When joint inflammation are a problem too, then Glucosamine Sulfate, Chondroitin + MSM. If there is no Costco in your area, NutriTeam and CortaFlex are Internet companies which sell MSM products for reducing the inflammation in your body. Remember inflammation is the cause for all disease in our body. MSM and Glocosamine Sulfate are natural anti-inflammatories which have no side effects as Western medication like Ibuprofen or Cortison have. Yours in health, Stretchguy
