Chronic Pain Management
"Chronic pain is your body's way of telling a deeper story. Functional medicine listens, uncovers the root cause, and helps you reclaim a life of balance and vitality."
Relief From Acute and Chronic Pain
Finding relief from chronic pain goes beyond simply prescribing medications and administering steroid injections. Our functional medicine approach incorporates a range of healing modalities to offer effective tools for pain management.
Additionally, functional medicine can be applied to manage complex pain issues arising from conditions such as:
Fibromyalgia
Chronic abdominal, back, and/or neck pain
Carpal tunnel syndrome
Myofascial pain
Post-herpetic neuralgia (shingles)
Chronic headache syndromes
Arthritis and other autoimmune disorders
And many more conditions
Functional Medicine Approach to Chronic Pain Management
What sets the functional medicine approach apart is its focus on healthy lifestyle changes rather than relying on pain medications. It also emphasizes addressing the emotional aspects of chronic pain and improving social functionality.
At Peak Health Institute, we aim to treat the root causes of chronic pain, which may include underlying autoimmune conditions, nutrient deficiencies, genetic factors, and food sensitivities. By addressing these factors, we often see significant improvements or even the complete resolution of pain symptoms.
Chronic pain management treatment involves nutrition therapy, supplementation, functional neurology to enhance brain function, and other alternative therapies designed to improve cellular function, with a particular focus on boosting immune system health.
