Mainstream, natural & alternative treatments, therapies and remedies, as well as content aimed at understanding the mechanisms behind chronic pain and the chronic pain cycle will be aimed at helping chronic pain warriors fight to regain their life, health and well being.
Strive To Heal will also be used as a platform to spread awareness about chronic pain, chronic illness & invisible disabilities.
My own chronic pain journey began when I became pregnant with my oldest child. Once I returned to work following my second maternity leave, my pain issues exploded through the roof & I have been recovering ever since. My official diagnosis list includes chronic pain syndrome, sacroiliac joint/pelvic girdle dysfunction, neuropathic pain, myofascial pain syndrome and depression. I am also waiting on an Ehlers Danlos Syndrome hypermobility variant specialist evaluation. During my quest to regain a sense of actually living my life and not just surviving from day to day, I have amassed a large amount of knowledge & personal experience that I want to share with others. It is my hope that I can help other chronic pain & chronic illness sufferers’ on their own healing journeys.
