However, pain is also nature’s way of saying that something is wrong so it would be counter productive to alleviate it before ascertaining the root cause. I used to suffer from lower back pain but this disappeared when I changed jobs – it was simply stress and this could have been bettered by hypnosis, so I am not opposed per se but suggest a level of extra care be applied.
