Conventional medical care is great for many problems, but chronic pain is often the result of years of biomechanical dysfunction. Poor posture, improper use, overuse, or past injuries can leave you with joints that may feel permanently broken and muscles that have forgotten how to function properly. If you feel like you’ve already tried everything and your pain hasn’t lessened, you may find relief with one of the following therapies:
The joints of the spine are incredibly easy to pull out of proper alignment. This can lead to problems in other parts of the body as well as nerve pathway malfunction. With small adjustments to your spinal alignment, chiropractic treatments can help make your body function the way it’s supposed to.
Back, neck, and shoulder pain can often be caused by damaged tissues that have forgotten how to function correctly. This therapy uses stretching, massage, and stimulation of the connective tissues to encourage healing and proper blood flow to malfunctioning areas.
Sometimes referred to as premodulated current physical therapy, this treatment uses mild electrical stimulation to reduce muscle spasms, discomfort, and swelling on soft tissue and muscle injuries.
Using safe, painless application of very fine needles, Dr. Doyle uses this centuries-old mainstay of Eastern medicine to gently stimulate nerve pathways at strategic points on the body. Acupuncture is a great way to stimulate tissues and encourage the body to heal itself by natural means.
Shoulder and neck pain are often the result of improper lifting, repeated motions, and bad posture. Physical therapy exercises can help retrain the body to use the right muscles and movement patterns needed for proper function and reduced pain.
Therapeutic ultrasound therapy can reduce muscle pain and increase range of motion by delivering deep heat to the underlying impaired muscles and connective tissues. As a complement to physical therapy, ultrasound therapy treats muscles, tendons, joints, and ligaments.
