Philosophy and Guiding Ideas
There are many roads to Rome as was said in ancient days. In this context I believe there are many treatments and ways to combine treatments that result in the reduction or elimination of pain. We will look carefully at all of your considerations and see which treatment combinations are best for you.
Medications can be extremely helpful, but they can also affect the person and the body in negative ways. Wellness Pain Care emphasizes non-pharmacological treatments to lead you to results at the highest possible level of health and well being.
Opioids can be a double edged sword, as they are the best support known for severe acute pain. In chronic pain care, however, there are risks associated with long term use that increase over time. Most dangerously, increased pain, severe psychological and physical dependency and even addiction can result, and these can derail a person's life for years, even decades. If you and your doctor determine that reduction or elimination of opioids is in your best interest, I can provide additional tools, support, and education to assist you as you transition. I have helped many people achieve an opiate free life and I can help you too.
