3 Benefits of Managing Pain Naturally
At Colorado Spine & Disc, we believe in using natural pain management techniques to heal our patients, whether it's for an auto accident injury or a more serious condition like arthritis. With practices like massage therapy and joint realignment, we help our patients manage their own pain, so they can experience relief without help from drugs and pain medications. Depending on the patient's condition, we also make nutritional recommendations, lifestyle change recommendations and exercise recommendations, so our patients can take pain management into their own hands. Natural pain management has many benefits that patients don't always take into consideration. Here are just a few:
Natural Pain Relief is Non-Addictive
Conventional medications can be highly addictive. Addiction to pain medication has been known to destroy lives and can have a long-term impact on the functionality of medication users. Addiction to medication can impact the health of a patient as well as the ability to perform ordinary tasks. Addiction can negatively impact patient relationships with friends and loved ones. In addition, people who are addicted to pain medication will find that they require more of that drug over time, just to remain comfortable. Natural pain relief has none of these risks.
Natural Pain Relief has No Negative Side-Effects
Whereas conventional pain relief medications can cause a variety of negative side-effects, from sleepiness to anxiety to depression, natural pain relief does not. Natural pain relief won't interfere with other medications for other conditions.
Natural Pain Relief Can be Healing
Conventional pain relief methods use medications to mask pain or dull pain, without actually addressing the true problem. Our natural methods relieve pain by increasing oxygen flow to damaged and injured areas, promoting self-healing. This means that natural pain relief can be a more permanent, better long-term solution for pain management.
