Pain Management

What are Conservative Pain Management Solutions That Do Not Include Painkillers?

Here at the Pacific Medical Group, we take the approach to conservative pain management that involves holistic care. If you do not want to use prescription painkillers, we will provide therapies to treat the injuries that are causing you pain. In doing so we are able to offer you long term relief from pain, and the possibility of preventing the pain from returning. We use a variety of treatment methods and corrective exercises to treat areas of pain. These may include physical therapy, massage therapy, chiropractic care, acupuncture, and physiotherapy. If you do find that your pain is not responsive to chiropractic care, physical therapy, or corrective exercises we can provide you with a careful management program using pain medications.

How is Chiropractic Care Associated With Pain Relief?

When you are suffering from pain in your joints or musculoskeletal system we can use chiropractic care to provide you with pain relief. Using chiropractic techniques including spinal adjustment and spinal decompression your Maui chiropractor is able to get to the source of inflammation and swelling in your joints, bones, and muscles. Once the area of inflammation is targeted various methods, such as manual decompression or acupuncture, can be used to treat the specific area. After the inflammation decreases, so will the swelling and irritation, as well as the pain.
