Pain Management

 

Pain Management

 

Chiropractic and Acupuncture might be the best-known treatment for pain in alternative medicine.

Chiropractic manipulation has known to be effective to treat back pain by relieving pressure on joint, reduce inflammation and improve nerve function.

The ancient art of acupuncture has been used for centuries for pain relief and many other conditions. Many studies have proven its physiological benefits such as anti-inflammatory effects and increased blood flow to the local tissue.
