Millions of people in the U.S. suffer from different types of pain. [badpain] Pain is the main reason most people seek treatment in a professional clinic. The process of pain involves a complex experience which is influenced by a person’s cultural background, previous experience, environmental stress, and emotional and cognitive responses. Pain can be acute, chronic and persistent and induced by cancer.
Clinically, there are three types of pain classified in nature. First, psychogenic pain which is very occasionally seen due to a disorder of the mind. Secondly, neuropathic pain which is as a result of actual or potential damage to either the peripheral or central nervous system, for example, diabetic neuropathy and trigeminal neuralgia, commonly described as burning, tingling or shooting sensation. This type of pain usually responds poorly to standard pain treatment. Third and most commonly, nociceptive pain which is caused by the activation and sensitization of sensory receptors in the skin, muscles or internal organs, such as fibromyalgia. This kind of pain typically tends to lead to chronic persistent pain.
Standard medical treatments for pain include pain-killing drugs, muscle relaxants and tranquilizers. These medications only mask pain without solving the underlying causes but with side affects which may cause other health problems. Cortisone injections or surgery are also optional.
Our Clinic Services offer a holistic approach to pain. Based upon each patient’s specific condition, an individualized treatment plan will be selected from a vast array of modalities for the control of pain.
