About Interventional Pain Clinic<\/p><\/h1><\/span>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n

Chronic pain is any pain, which exists for longer than six months or pain, which exists for longer than\u00a0it would usually be expected for a given injury to heal.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

It may last for several months or it can remain\u00a0for the rest of the patient\u2019s life. It is important to remember that chronic pain<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/em> has as much to do with\u00a0a patient\u2019s perception of the pain as it does with the actual physical aspect of the pain.<\/p>\n

Understanding chronic pain<\/h3>\n

To understand\u00a0chronic pain, patients with long-term back, neck, shoulder, leg, arm, hip, knee, elbow or foot pain,\u00a0headaches and migraines, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and other sorts of sport and overuse\u00a0injuries, fibromyalgia, sciatica, temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ), multiple sclerosis, post-herpetic\u00a0neuralgia, Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD\/Complex Reginal Pain Syndrome (CRPS)\/Causalgia) and\u00a0trigeminal neuralgia are often faced with chronic pain challenges.<\/p>\n

Our office has many different ways to help patients deal with their pain and we recognize that there are many challenges to overcoming chronic pain issues.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Chronic pain is often accompanied by feelings of guilt, frustration, anger, depression, and anxiety; making use of a multidisciplinary program tailored to the patient\u2019s unique combination of symptoms can ensure that these feelings are managed as best as possible.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

We strive to assist our patients in discovering new ways to manage and treat their pain challenges with varying strategies that are tailored to each person. We recognize that each patient has different challenges and opportunities at their disposal and we want to work with our patients to come up with the best possible solution for them.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Pain consultants and specialists<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/em> often suggest that patients with chronic pain make use of an\u00a0interdisciplinary program<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/em> to alleviate and moderate their pain symptoms.<\/p>\n

\n

This can mean attending\u00a0appointments for chiropractic, acupuncture, physiotherapy, exercise programs, and psychotherapy\u00a0techniques, such as biofeedback or relaxation<\/strong>. Patients may also be offered medications and injections\u00a0in combination with these other options to help manage their pain and pain symptoms.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Our office will\u00a0work with the patient to find the best combination of modalities to treat their symptoms and alleviate\u00a0their chronic pain.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
