Pets Can Help With Physical Therapy
When you physically interact with your pet — taking them for walks, playing, or stroking their fur — you may actually be helping your muscles and joints heal. Gently working your hands and wrists can keep your muscles strong and range of motion improving. Pets also force you to get up and move around the house periodically, whether you need to let them out, feed them, or see what mischief they’re getting into, and that’s important for your mobility.
It may come as a surprise, but your animal friend could even bring some heat therapy to your routine. The body heat from a dog or cat snuggled next to you can soothe and relax aggravated muscles, relieving your fibro pain.
CBD oil for fibromyalgia is a natural treatment which can help people with fibromyalgia manage their symptoms from pain to boosting energy levels.
