Can you say that you’ve not only resolved your pain, but have become fully functional again? If not, you need to know about the focus of our pain management program at Natural Medicine, Rehabilitation & Pain Manage- ment (NMRPM) and our crusade to help stop the abuse of narcotics for pain relief and start living pain free. Pain can drastically lower the quality of your life, but it doesn’t have to BE your life. Pain is your body’s ‘Check Engine Light’ going on to make you aware of a problem. Ignoring or covering up pain without man- aging its cause, is like putting black electri- cal tape over the engine light of your car so it no longer annoys you. That’s not a smart solution, and if ignored over time, can cre- ate even bigger concerns. NMRPM will offer a variety of treatment modalities, techniques and educational programs that are used to create an indi- vidualized, sequential plan of care as well as an educational component to learn the treatment options and lifestyle choices to support living pain-free. These core services address the pillars of our ‘Smart Pain Man- agement Model” which includes: 1. PAIN MANAGEMENT : Comprehensive medical assessment and targeted med- ical pain procedures • Cell-based Injection Therapy. This regenerative procedure is an all-natu- ral alternative to surgical interven- tion. By using stem cells obtained from your own bone marrow, we are able to mimic your body’s natural ability to heal. • Epidural steroid injections help relieve a patient’s pain and inflammation, but more importantly it also helps them progress in their rehabilitation program in order to best manage the causative factors of their condition and prevent the pain from returning. • Radiofrequency ablation (or RFA) uses radio waves to decrease pain signals from a specific area of nerve tissues. Once the pain is manageable the patient can be more progressive with their rehabilitation program. • Therapeutic nerve blocks contain local anesthetic to control acute pain. • Vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to stabilize and stop the pain caused from a spinal fracture. 2. REHABILITATION: Individualized treat- ments and a wide range of therapies. • Physical Therapy • Chiropractic Care • Acupuncture • Biofeedback Therapy • Massage Therapy • Cranio-Sacral Therapy • Clinical Nutrition • Weight Loss • Comprehensive Blood Work 3. EDUCATION & LIFESTYLE PRESCRIP- TION: Practical physical, mental & emo- tional educational programs to support living a pain-free and healthful lifestyle. • Patient education • Corporate Lunch N Learns Pain management is a complex specialty encompassing many aspects of medicine. One should never simply cover up the pain without identifying and managing the causative factors. The foundation of NMRPM is to reduce your pain by identify- ing the cause through comprehensive assessments, then treating and strengthen- ing the body to improve its capabilities and prevent future problems or recurrence.
