Why Use a Natural Muscle Relaxer

Back pain and back spasm is probably one of the most common reasons a muscle relaxer, also known as muscle relaxant, is prescribed by a doctor. Some of the prescription muscle relaxers are Soma, Skelaxin, Flereril, Norflex and even Valium.

The problem with the prescription muscle relaxants is that they have many side-effects and often leave you feeling drowsy or groggy. In addition, if you happen to have an alcoholic beverage, the combination can be very dangerous.

Why Use a Natural Muscle Relaxer?

That brings us to the use of natural muscle relaxers. They are made with one or more natural ingredients. Usually these ingredients have a long history of being used by thousands of people for back spasm and pain. One of these ingredients is Valerian, an herbal relaxer that has been used for hundreds of years and by countless people. Valerian is one of the ingredients found in Formula 303 and Relax Already.

The main reason a natural muscle relaxer is a better choice over a prescription is that there are usually minimal or no side-effects. Of course everyone reacts different to even natural herbs, so it's often a good idea to first try it in your home and not to drive or use machinery while taking even a natural muscle relaxer.
