Non-Invasive Pain Procedures and Treatments

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reports that pain affects more people than diabetes, heart disease, and cancer combined and is the most common cause leading individuals to seek health care. If you’re among those in San Antonio suffering from chronic pain, you’re probably longing for the days when you could live unrestrained by your medical condition. You may be able to accept the reality of the pain you’re dealing with, but you wonder if there’s a way to overcome the limitations you now face.

Understanding Your Non-Invasive Pain Treatment Options

The challenge for many is finding relief with the right kind of treatment. In the past, conditions such as chronic back or neck pain might be treated surgically but ran the risk of other complications that could leave a patient in worse shape. Even today, choosing from the variety of treatments available for chronic pain can be overwhelming. But everyone suffering from ongoing conditions should have access to the information they need to make the best decision for their health.

An experienced and knowledgeable pain specialist, such as those at Dr. Martinez’s office, has an understanding of the latest developments in non-invasive pain procedures and treatments and can offer patients an alternative to more intrusive methods.

Some of the more common non-invasive pain procedures and treatments that also avoid medications can be highly effective in relieving a patient of chronic pain.

Exercise is a great way to keep the body moving while aiming to increase strength and flexibility. Your pain management specialist can suggest any number of activities to meet your needs. Exercise also has the added benefits of improving cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health.

Hot and cold treatments are frequently used in connection with exercise to alleviate chronic pain.

Electrotherapy involves low-voltage stimulation to the nervous system. Here again, a knowledgeable pain management specialist can offer the insight you need to address your unique condition and needs.
