When you take over the counter or prescription medication to relieve pain, you are essentially masking the symptoms. Pain is your body’s way of telling you that you have an injury or that an area is just not working correctly. It is important to pay attention to those signals from your body. Chiropractic care is a way to find relief from pain and treat the underlying cause of the health issue without having to take over the counter or prescription medications.
Reasons to Consider Chiropractic Care Instead of Pain Medicine
In addition to simply masking the pain rather than treating the condition, pain medications can have side effects as well that are unnecessary and undesirable. These medications can cause stomach upset, kidney and liver damage and addiction depending on which medication(s) you take. If you are looking for a way to feel better, achieve your optimal health in the long term, you may want to consider passing on the medications and focusing on another non-invasive treatment option. St. Paul Chiropractic & Natural Medicine Center offers a wide variety of non-invasive treatment for all types of pain including headaches, back or neck pain, sports or car accident injuries, sciatica, leg pain and other acute and chronic conditions.
Chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, decompression therapy as well as SoftWave Therapy. Each of these treatment options work a bit differently, but they each help your body’s own healing mechanisms to kick in. Rather than masking the pain, these treatments actually treat pain at its source and actually heal the underlying issue. Chiropractic adjustments align your spinal cord so that you can get back to daily life. Decompression therapy takes the pressure off of your spinal cord which helps reduce inflammation and increase overall blood flow. SoftWave Therapy is relatively new to St. Paul Chiropractic & Natural Medicine Center. It uses SoftWave Tissue Regeneration Technology, to place short, fast, and highly intense bursts of energy (shockwaves) into your injured soft tissue to reduce the pain and promote healing.
