When Pain Refuses to Go Away !
Chronic pain isn’t just about the body — it seeps into sleep, emotions, relationships, and daily life. For many, it becomes a silent companion, lingering despite medications or therapies. Beneath the constant ache lies something deeper: energy knots, unresolved emotions, and ancestral burdens that the body carries quietly.
Holistic chronic pain relief goes beyond symptom management. It explores the emotional and energetic roots of pain, helping the body find balance, release, and vitality.
In my work, chronic pain often reflects blocked energy in muscles, joints, or nerves — what I call energy knots. These form when unresolved emotions like anger, fear, grief, or exhaustion remain unprocessed, locking the nervous system into constant alert.
Excess yang (tension, overdrive) with depleted yin (rest, stillness) → creates ongoing inflammation and stress.
Commonly affected chakras:
Solar plexus (anger, control, stored stress).
Basic/root (safety, survival fears).
Heart (grief, loneliness).
Sacral/sex chakra (suppressed creativity or trauma).
Unresolved mother/father wounds often appear as imbalance here — rejection, abandonment, or suppressed emotional needs becoming physicalized pain.
Liver (anger, frustration) → tension in muscles and tendons.
Spleen (worry, overthinking) → heaviness, fatigue, digestive links to pain.
Kidneys (fear, exhaustion) → chronic lower back or joint pain.
Heart (grief, lack of joy) → chest tension, body heaviness.
These meridians mirror how unresolved emotions are stored in the body.
Family constellation work often uncovers hidden grief or trauma behind chronic pain:
Silent burdens carried for parents or grandparents.
Exclusions (estranged family members, miscarriages) creating unconscious loyalty.
Patterns of suffering silently repeated across generations.
When these dynamics are honored, the body often softens — pain that felt “stuck” begins to release.
Painkillers or physiotherapy may provide temporary relief, but they rarely answer the deeper question:
“Why is my body holding on to this pain?”
Without addressing emotional and energetic roots, the cycle often repeats. Holistic healing works by listening to the body’s message and resolving what lies beneath.
Pranic healing clears congested energy in pain sites and replenishes depleted areas, restoring the body’s natural vitality and balance. This often results in reduced intensity and frequency of pain.
(Pranic healing works by cleansing blocked prana and revitalizing the body’s self-healing capacity.)
Bach flower remedies gently address the emotional undercurrents of chronic pain:
Hopelessness or despair about long-term suffering.
Resentment or suppressed anger locked in the body.
Loneliness or lack of support during prolonged illness.
Exhaustion and overwhelm from living with pain.
(Bach flower remedies harmonize emotional patterns, restoring calm and resilience without suppressing feelings.)
EFT tapping releases pain memories and trauma stored in the nervous system. It helps calm the body’s stress response and shift deep-seated fear or anger connected to pain.
(EFT gently rewires emotional responses, helping the body feel safe and reducing the intensity of chronic pain.)
Chronic pain can mirror ancestral grief or unspoken family pain:
Carrying suffering for someone excluded or forgotten.
A child unconsciously holding pain to stay “loyal” to a parent.
Repeating family patterns of hardship or sacrifice.
Constellation work brings these dynamics to light, freeing the body from burdens that aren’t truly its own.
Clients often notice after integrated healing:
Reduced intensity or frequency of pain.
Greater emotional resilience and inner calm.
Improved mobility and energy.
A sense of lightness and reconnection to life.
