Pain Management Through Sleeping

A common cause of frustration for most patients is difficulty sleeping. Pain management through sleeping reduces insomnia by reducing pain. Studies show that the less you sleep the more your pain can increase. One of the best natural pain relievers is actually a good night’s rest.

Sleep Deprivation and Pain

How sensitive you are to pain when waking up is related to how well you sleep the night before. Having daytime fatigue or the feeling of sluggishness after a bad night’s sleep increases your sensitivity to pain. Harvard conducted a study that looked at the pain sensitivity of sleep-deprived mice. They found that caffeine helped reduce their pain, even more so than morphine.
