Pain Treatment
Effective Pain Treatment for Injured People
Accident Injury Doctors | Non-Invasive and Non-Pharmaceutical Pain Management Strategies
Unfortunately, many people who experience chronic pain have either accepted it as part of life or resorted to a cycle of regularly masking the effects of pain with medications. Though pain is somewhat subjective, any degree of discomfort can have a dramatic impact on your overall quality of life. Much of the rhetoric surrounding pain management in internal medicine says that it can either be controlled with painkillers or will gradually decline as your body naturally heals.
At Accident Injury Doctors Pain & Injury, we believe that, regardless of your age or condition, there is a better way to treat pain than to simply “manage” it. We don’t believe that pain has to be a part of your life. As chiropractors, we will work with you to identify the source of your pain, instead of merely looking at your symptoms. We believe that this approach creates more accountability on our part–to carefully listen to your concerns, so that we can make a proper diagnosis and formulate a complete treatment plan that will result in your optimal health and well-being.
We Treat Pain at the Source
At Accident Injury Doctors, we are not in the business of “guess and check.” In order to properly treat our patients, using physical manipulation and chiropractic adjustments, we need a complete understanding of the severity, extent and location of your injuries. This requires careful and thorough diagnostic work, which requires that we take the time to learn all your symptoms and medical history, so that we have an accurate and thorough picture of your condition and can develop the best treatment plan for your specific needs.
By listening to you and by closely monitoring your response to treatments, we can get to the source of your pain. We can then prescribe treatment that is more effective than simply masking pain with nerve-inhibiting pills.
When you experience pain because of a fall or collision, the nerves surrounding your injury send signals to your brain, indicating the presence of excessive pressure and strain. By correcting a bone misalignment and/or releasing tension on bones and soft tissue, we can typically attack an injury at its source, providing long-term pain relief instead of pain management.
Managing Your Pain with Chiropractic Adjustments
Once we know the cause of your pain or discomfort, we can implement a series of chiropractic adjustments to improve your condition. Our chiropractic adjustments are highly focused pressure treatments that isolate an area of your body (various joints throughout the body) and work to promote improved mobility and blood flow. After we relieve some of the pressure through a series of adjustments, the nerves surrounding your injured joint will experience less discomfort and cease to communicate pain signals to the brain.
Sustainable and Holistic Pain Treatments
Because we don’t rely on risky surgeries and toxic medications, our pain treatments are free of significant side-effects and can be administered as often as needed, for patients of all ages and conditions. This is particularly important when you have a chronic condition that may require weeks, months or even years of continued care.
If you are dealing with chronic lower back pain (sciatica), neck pain, shoulder pain or any other joint pain and discomfort, consider the benefits of a more dedicated and holistic chiropractic approach to pain treatment.
