Pain Management

Drug-Free Pain Management Services at Hull Chiropractic

There are few things in life more maddening than aches and pains that just won't leave you alone. Recurring or constant pain can cause severe emotional stress and limit your everyday function in all kinds of ways. But depending on drugs to get through the day isn't an attractive solution for many chronic pain sufferers. That's when it's good to know that you can obtain natural, drug-free pain management at Hull Chiropractic. Our Indianapolis chiropractor, Dr. Hull, can help you get your chronic pain under control.

The Need for Safe, Effective Pain Management

Pain falls under two major categories: acute pain and chronic pain. Acute pain accompanies a traumatic injury, major surgery, or another kind of serious, sudden tissue damage. As agonizing as this pain may be, it thankfully fades once the damage has healed -- most of the time. On some occasions, however, improper healing or the accumulation of internal scar tissue leaves you with painful functional limitations. If this problem goes on for more than 6 months, it is said to be chronic pain. Chronic pain may also develop as a symptom of an underlying chronic disorder such as osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. If the condition itself cannot be cured or reversed, then you're faced with the prospect of taming that pain for life.

Painkillers aren't an ideal solution for chronic pain treatment. These drugs may interact dangerously with other medications or produce side effects that keep you from thinking clearly. They can also prove highly addictive, as the current opioid epidemic sadly demonstrates. To top it all off, these drugs don't address the biomechanical causes of your pain; they simply numb the pain temporarily.

Chiropractic Care and Other Conservative Treatment Methods

Here at Hull Chiropractic, we make use of a variety of conservative care techniques to help you manage your chronic pain safely and effectively. Chiropractic care can improve joint position and function. Spinal decompression eases nerve impingement, a common cause of chronic pain. Electrical stimulation therapy can block pain signals from reaching your brain. We can also offer ongoing lifestyle recommendations, from anti-inflammatory nutritional supplementation to exercise and weight loss programs, to support your best health and eliminate any extra pain triggers that might make your condition worse.
