Pain Management

Pain Management

Comprehensive relief from acute and chronic pain

Our pain management service helps mitigate pain caused by arthritis, disc injury, whiplash, motor vehicle accidents, sports injury, or other causes.

Pain management can target muscle or joint abnormalities causing pain, such as trigger points or arthritis. Usually, these procedures require consecutive treatments to produce full and long-lasting relief. Some treatments may be given on a weekly basis, others may require a month between treatments.

Our nurse practitioner, Cindy Adson, will examine and explain the procedure and goal of treatment at your visit. She can also help educate you about the potential risks of some treatments. She works closely with our chiropractors to provide integrative care that supports each patient's journey back to activity and exercise.

By utilizing conservative and conventional medicine, we provide a comprehensive treatment plan that can include injections, medication, as well as spinal manipulation, myofascial release, and stretching. Regardless of the path through care, the endpoint is always to help our patients return to activity and enjoy life!

Conditions We Treat

Pain management is a vital aspect of healthcare that addresses a multitude of symptoms and conditions, each requiring a specialized approach for effective relief. Here's an overview of common symptoms and conditions we treat:

Spinal Pain:

Spinal pain encompasses a wide range of conditions, including lower back pain, upper back pain, and neck pain. It can result from issues such as herniated discs, muscle strain, or spinal misalignments. Pain management strategies often involve a combination of therapies, including spinal adjustments, physical therapy, and pain medication.

Hip & Shoulder Pain:

Hip pain may be due to various causes, such as arthritis, bursitis, or overuse injuries. Shoulder pain can result from rotator cuff problems, tendonitis, or frozen shoulder. Pain management for these conditions can involve physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and lifestyle modifications to alleviate discomfort and improve function.

Muscle Knots & Spasms:

Muscle knots, or trigger points, can lead to localized pain and muscle tension. Painful muscle spasms can result from muscle overuse, dehydration, or electrolyte imbalances. Pain management techniques may include massage therapy, myofascial release, stretching exercises, and sometimes muscle relaxants to relieve spasms and release knots.

Pain That Travels:

Pain that radiates or travels from its origin to other areas of the body often requires a comprehensive assessment. Pain management plans aim to address the underlying cause and may involve a combination of therapies to alleviate referred pain.

Tension Headache:

Tension headaches are often related to muscle tension in the neck and shoulders. Pain management strategies may include relaxation techniques, massage, heat therapy, and over-the-counter pain relievers.
