Holistic & Spiritual Pain Treatment Options

Psychneuroimmunology,  the intimate relationship between your psyche (emotions), the brain (neurology) and the body's immune system (immunology). The mind is directly related to chemical, energy, and hormonal changes that happen in in our body.



We have a certain amount of energy to use each day, when we are overloaded with negative input, and stressors this sends out neuro transmission into our bodies. The immune system can be activated by neuropeptide, and positive begets positive immune response, and negative beats negative immune response. Our bodies cells feel, and see everything, and more energy is dispelled when the body feels the threat.

In today's stress filled society it's no wonder auto immune disease are on the rise, our bodies cells are responding to our thoughts, if the thoughts are negative, worried, and in constant fear, then the immune system gets overloaded, and the immune system starts invading the body. If you already have an autoimmune disease, and the pain causes depression, and worry then more negative neuropeptides are released , thus making you have more pain.
