Lead a Pain-Free Life by Nerve Block Therapy

Results may vary from person to person due to lifestyle, healthy eating, body type and dedication to the program. No individual result should be seen as typical. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

If you are experiencing severe or chronic pain and pain medication does not seem to work anymore, then nerve block therapy may help you lead a pain-free life. Your body transmits pain throughout the nervous system. Nerve block therapy intercepts and inhibits that pain signal. When the nerve block treatment is effective, you will often notice pain reduction within an hour. The effects can last for weeks or months.

Nerve block therapies are often combined with other treatment options to not only numb the pain, but to discover where the pain is coming from and how to stop it from reoccurring. At Discover Optimal Healthcare, we seek to discover and eliminate pain through non-invasive treatment options. Our expert pain management team can help you get back to a pain-free lifestyle.

We provide a wide variety of nerve block therapies, and one of our pain management experts can talk with you about which treatment option could best help reduce or eliminate your pain challenges.

Sciatica

When you feel shooting pain in your lower back, hips and thighs, you may have a pinched sciatic nerve. Using nerve block therapy that targets the cause of the pinching, many sciatica sufferers notice dramatically reduced sciatic pain.

Carpal tunnel (median)

If your carpal tunnel syndrome is so painful that it keeps you from performing normal daily activities, median nerve block therapy may be able to provide your wrists, forearms, and hands with much needed relief.

Suprascapular

Suprascapular nerve entrapment can be instigated by a variety of causes. However, it can result in chronic shoulder pain, as well as shoulder and neck weakness. If left untreated, a condition called Suprascapular nerve palsy develops. Suprascapular nerve block therapy targets the entrapped nerve and provides relief from this painful condition.

SPG

The sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) is a collection of nerves that, when agitated, can cause chronic cluster headaches and migraines. If you are suffering from painful, reoccurring headaches, this nerve block therapy may be able to relieve your pain.

Axillary

The axillary block targets the brachial plexus nerve group in the upper arm, and can provide pain relief for a variety of upper arm-related conditions.

Acupuncture - Ancient Eastern Wisdom Can Benefit Your Health Today!

Results may vary from person to person due to lifestyle, healthy eating, body type and dedication to the program. No individual result should be seen as typical. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

Acupuncture is an ancient art that has been successfully practiced for over 4000 years. This ancient art has held up over the centuries, as modern scientific studies have shown that acupuncture can be effective at treating pain and other ailments.

By inserting thin needles into very specific parts of your body, pain and tension can feel like it is sliding away. On occasion, our classically trained, medically certified acupuncture practitioners will add a small electrical or heat stimulation to the acupuncture locations to further enhance the reparative powers of this time-honored treatment.

Why should I consider acupuncture?

Acupuncture has been observed to significantly reduce the effects of migraine headaches, back and joint pain, fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis. Patients have also expressed that acupuncture restores their mind/body balance, and positively influences their mind’s perception of pain.

In just 30 minutes per session, this nearly-painless treatment can help stimulate your body’s natural healing response, increase blood-flow to painful areas of your body, and reduce your overall level of pain.

What is an acupuncture session like?

Once you realize that acupuncture can help you live a more pain-free life, you will see that an acupuncture session with us can benefit your overall health. When you arrive for your appointment, one of our experienced acupuncturists will discuss your acupuncture plan with you, based off of the latest acupuncture techniques. Then, disposable, sterile needles will be expertly placed just below the skin into one of your body’s 350 acupuncture points, to provide you with maximum pain relief.

For 30 relaxing minutes, the needles remain in place, as your body is stimulated to generate its own painkillers, and begin the restorative process. Patients report little-to-no pain during this entire process. Instead, you will feel subtle movements of energy as their body responds to the effects of these ancient healing techniques. After your session is complete, the needles are carefully removed and disposed.
