I have dealt with chronic pain for most of my life, however I was in a car accident when I was young, and my injuries didn’t show themselves until my young adulthood, however since I wasn’t aware that I had back injuries when I was younger, I wasn’t as careful as I should have been playing sports and lifting weights.
Since I am not a fan of prescription painkillers, I have many other methods of managing my back pain, such as stretches, breathwork, and a few holistic topical remedies, but one thing I noticed, however, was that if it was too hot in my room, my back pain would be more noticeable, periodically making it so I couldn’t sleep.
I found myself getting up often in the night to adjust the thermostat, which would keep me up late at night, and prevent me from getting a good amount of rest. One afternoon, after a painful, sleepless night, I called my HVAC provider to come inspect my system. The HVAC dealer was able to send a worker to my home quickly, and he discovered that I had a faulty control unit.A new thermostat was the solution to my fluctuating temperature. I decided to upgrade to a new smart control unit, so that if I needed to adjust the thermostat I could simply open the app on my phone and adjust it from there! However, since I replaced my thermostat,I haven’t had to adjust the temperature in my home nearly as much. The consistent temperature of my cooling system has let me sleep comfortably through the night, without being bothered by my back pain.
