Pain Management

At Oak Integrative, we don't just treat symptoms; we dig deep to uncover the root causes of your discomfort. Our approach is comprehensive and personalized, ensuring that your treatment plan is tailored specifically to your needs and lifestyle. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain or recovering from an injury, we're committed to helping you find lasting relief and regain your quality of life.

Chronic Pain

Many of us experience chronic pain in different forms on a daily basis. People have been trained by conventional medicine to look for a ‘band-aid,’ or instantaneous remedy for their pain by reaching out for painkillers. By focusing on finding the root causes of pain, we can tailor medicine to you and use it locally to reduce overall inflammation in the body. By controlling total inflammatory load, we can use regenerative injections to help the body rebuild itself.

Registered Massage Therapy

Registered massage therapy is a powerful tool in managing chronic pain, offering relief by reducing muscle tension, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation. At Oak Integrative, we take the time to understand your unique needs and create detailed, individualized treatment plans that address the specific sources of your pain, helping you achieve long-term relief and enhanced well-being.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture offers a holistic approach to chronic pain management by tapping into the body's natural healing mechanisms. By precisely inserting thin needles into specific points, acupuncture helps to reduce inflammation, enhance blood flow, and release endorphins. This ancient practice not only alleviates pain but also promotes overall balance and well-being, making it a key component of a comprehensive pain management plan.

Naturopathic Remedies

  • A trigger point is a knot or tight band in the muscle that forms when muscle fails to relax. The knot can often be felt under the skin and may twitch involuntarily. The trigger point can trap or irritate surrounding nerves and cause referred pain - pain felt in another part of the body. Trigger point injections (TPI) involve injecting the affected neuromuscular trigger point with local anesthetic (e.g., lidocaine, procaine), to break the ongoing pattern, allowing the muscle to release and return to normal function.

  • It is often indicated for injuries that have failed to heal despite traditional treatment options. It can be used to treat muscles, tendons, joints and ligaments all over the body. Some examples include: arthritis, muscle strains, partial tendon tears, ligament sprains, and chronic tendon injuries

  • By prescribing compounded topical creams, we provide a targeted approach that directly addresses inflammation at its source. These customized formulations are designed to penetrate the skin effectively, offering localized pain relief while minimizing systemic side effects.
