Traveling With Chronic Pain | Practical Tips from a Physician Assistant

I'm a Physician Assistant and also have chronic pain, sometimes traveling with chronic pain can be REALLY difficult and discouraging - but here are some practical tips I have used alternately throughout my traveling days and with my patients that I have found useful. These are non-invasive, non-narcotic ways to help the pain, but as always, please consult your Primary Care doctor to see if there is a bigger issue going on that needs these kinds of interventions.

Please also note that any over-the-counter supplements and vitamins are not controlled by the FDA and should be used in moderation, essential oils are also not an alternative for modern treatment and should only be used for improved comfort and is highly subjective if they actually help. My motto is, if it works for YOU then keep doing what works.

Hi! Welcome to the Culture Trekking Community! My name is Janiel a story collector that tries to inspire you on the inside to better explore the outside through cultural connection and sustainable adventures. I am a dog mum to Zoey (a Cockapoo) and Finnegan (a Boxer), we take lots of road trips through Utah (my home state), and they are my happy place. If you are someone who likes to leave the world a little better no matter where you step into it, I would LOVE to have you join the community!
