According to a recent study in Anaesthesia, magnesium supplementation may reduce pain and improve mobility in people who have chronic lower back and nerve pain.
Researchers evaluated subjects who all received traditional treatments such as physical therapy, antidepressants, and pain relievers. In addition, half of the participants received magnesium through an intravenous (IV) infusion for two weeks and magnesium capsules taken by mouth for four weeks, while the other half received a placebo during those six weeks.
Subjects that received the magnesium IV and supplements reported significantly reduced pain and significant improvement in spine range of motion compared with the placebo group.
