This yoga pose relieves tension in the lower back and legs and promotes circulation in the pelvic area, which will help you with cramps and period pains. In addition, the deep relaxation in this posture can calm the mind and relieve stress.

However, it’s important to listen to your body and not push yourself too hard, especially if you’re in a lot of pain.

Magnesium for period pain

Magnesium can help you relieve your period pain. It can help promote muscle relaxation, reducing your pain and cramps. One study showed that women who took 250 mg of magnesium daily had significantly less period pain.

At Ogaenics you will find the best, purely plant-based magnesium from organic algae in our CALM A LAMA Plant-based Bio-Magnesium and in the PMS Support set. This natural magnesium can be absorbed by your body particularly quickly and effectively, thus quickly relieving your period pain.

If you have PMS symptoms other than period pain, such as headaches, breast tenderness, mood swings, or increased irritability, you may want to try our PMS Support set in addition to magnesium. This nutrient combination supports better hormone balance, balances mood swings and irritability, and helps you get through your cycle better.

Heat for pain relief

One of the simplest methods of pain relief for period pain is the application of heat. A hot water bottle or heating pad can help you relax your muscles and relieve your pain. Also, wearing warm clothes and socks will ensure that your body doesn’t cool down and thus the pain won’t increase.

Relaxation techniques for period pain

Relaxation techniques such as breathing exercises, meditation or autogenic training can help calm the body and relieve your pain. Stress can actually increase your perception of pain. By using relaxation techniques, you can reduce the stress and thus relieve the pain.

Conclusion

Overall, you have many options for relieving your period pain naturally. A combination of different methods such as yoga, the nutrient magnesium, heat and relaxation techniques can be particularly helpful. However, it is important that you listen to your body and always consult a doctor if you experience severe pain.
