A Holistic Approach to Healing After Surgery

Surgery can be a big deal but your recovery doesn’t have to be miserable. Too often, the standard approach leans heavily on narcotics, which can bring along constipation, grogginess, dizziness, and delayed healing. Yuck!

Here’s the good news: There are natural, holistic ways to control pain and speed up recovery so you can get back to feeling like yourself without all the baggage of heavy meds.

Pre-Surgery Prep

Homeopathic Helpers

The night before surgery, take Arnica and Staphysagria (3 pellets each). Repeat right after surgery and then every few hours. These time-tested remedies help with pain, bruising, and overall healing.

Set the Vibe

Healing is more than physical it’s mental and spiritual, too.

• Ask your surgical team to pray with you if that feels right.

• Request that only encouraging and uplifting words are spoken in the OR.

• Bring your favorite music playlist (bonus points if it’s joyful or spiritual!) and ask the team to play it.

• Even better, laugh together or sing a fun song before you go under. Healing energy starts with joy!

Pain Control—Without the Drama

Skip the narcotics when you can, and try these instead:

Essential Oils for Relief

Combine Frankincense and Copaiba (from Young Living or DoTerra). Add 5 drops of each to a gelatin capsule and take 2 capsules every few hours as needed. Natural, effective, and no grogginess.

Ancient Wisdom

Collection Formulas Flex TMX (a Chinese medicine blend) helps speed healing and reduce inflammation.

Recovery Boosters

IV Vitamin Therapy

If you can swing it, schedule sessions with your local awesome IV vitamin team. Try 2–3 infusions before surgery and 1–2 after. These nutrient-packed drips support hydration, immunity, and healing at the cellular level.

Liver Love

Anesthesia can leave your liver sluggish. Help it bounce back with herbs like milk thistle and dandelion. Look for a good liver support blend at your local health food store. Start one week before surgery and keep going until you feel back to your vibrant self.

Frequency Healing with the Biocharger

The Biocharger is like a spa day for your cell it uses energy frequencies to promote circulation, speed up recovery, and restore vitality. Many people report feeling lighter, clearer, and more energized after sessions. It’s like hitting the “reset” button on your healing process.

Surround Yourself with Healing Energy

• Ask your surgical team to keep the atmosphere loving and positive.

• Request that they avoid harsh or negative words in the OR.

• Bring your own playlist or earbuds so you wake up surrounded by healing sounds.

• Remember, laughter and love are some of the best medicines around.

Final Thoughts

Healing doesn’t have to be boring, scary, or narcotic-heavy. With the right natural support homeopathy, essential oils, IV nutrients, herbal blends, and healing frequency you can recover with more energy, less pain, and a whole lot more joy.

Because surgery isn’t just about getting through it’s about bouncing back better than ever.

Wishing you a smooth surgery and speedy recovery!
