General Pain

Understanding your pain...

When pain occurs, it is showing you that somewhere in your body a problem has surfaced. This is not something to ignore.

People shrug pain off everyday thinking it will work its way out, but that may not be the case. You might need to seek professional help to correct  the problem.

There are two types of pain:

Acute Pain- This pain is new to the body and can be caused by a sprain, cut, broken bone etc. The pain can be mild to severe and will usually dissipate with healing.

Chronic Pain- This pain is different and might be accompanied by insomnia, exhaustion, even weight change and can last up to six months or more. Many look to painkillers to alienate the symptoms, to most this seems like the right thing to do, most people feel it better to mask the pain instead of getting to the root of the problem. Quite often painkillers will mask the cause of the problem by reducing the amount of pain. Doesn’t it make more sense to find the true cause of the pain and treat it directly?

Chiropractic can be your answer to a better lifestyle.
