Pain Management
80% of adults suffer from pain
In North America, over 80% of the adult population aged 45 or above,
suffer various degrees of pain-related diseases. These diseases are
not chronic yet, alarmingly they result in the most lost workdays
after the common cold. The fact that these diseases do not pose a
critical threat leads many people to overlooking the problem. Sadly,
this misunderstanding often results in decreased productivity and
quality of living.
Sanjiu pain management clinic
This is what drove Sanjiu Wellness Center to establishing its Pain-management
Clinic and Research Center. Our division combines Chinese and Western
chiropractic wisdom into one discipline. Manipulation of the body
has been practiced widely by Eastern civilization for millennia
with a high success rate, thus, making it a logical compliment to
modern western medicines. At Sanjiu Pain-management Clinic and Research
Center, we envision a symbiotic, harmonious combination of complementary
medical practices. Our finite goal is to not only to assist you
in relieving pain, it is one that can also allow for a better comprehension
the origin of pain-related diseases.
Non Intervention
Direct trauma and strain injuries respond well to various non-intervention
treatment methods. For more than 2000 years, patients in China have benefited
from non-intervention protocols. These therapies have allowed many patients
to avoid the risks of invasive surgery. The following information illustrates
Sanjiu's non-intervention treatment options:
1. Manipulation
Eight methods of bone manipulation and setting that are in use today with
a significant degree of success. Manipulation therapy allows for the re-alignment
of muscles, ligaments, and joints in traumatic injuries such as sprains,
subluxations, and dislocations. Manipulation may also be used to manually
reset fractures.
2. External Application
Based on an overall analysis of symptoms, the practitioner will apply
different herb combinations in various stages over the area of wounded
tissue. Once the herbs are absorbed directly into the skin, congestion
and swelling should decrease, thereby leading to a reduction or elimination
of pain symptoms.
3. Fumigation
Three different types of fumigation: smoke, steam, and bath. Wounded areas
are exposed to steam that is produced by boiling a combination of herbs
via decoction. For maximum effectiveness, the steam is allowed to lower
in temperature before exposure to the affected tissue. In the case of
bath treatment, the wounded body part is bathed in a solution containing
warm herbal extracts. This method has been in use for thousands of years,
in and around, China, Sanjiu is now introducing this treatment in a large
scale to the western market. Fumigation therapy is noted for the promotion
of blood circulation and lymph drainage.
4. Functional Exercise
In order to fully restore health after physical injury, it is essential
to follow a functional exercise program in compliment to acute-care treatment
programs offered by Sanjiu. Functional exercise includes specific stretching
and strengthening postures and movements, intended to facilitate optimal
joint range of motion, tissue strength, and tissue elasticity. Please
see the Qi Gong section of this site for more information on functional
exercise programs offered by Sanjiu.
