Chronic Pain Relief: New Treatments from James Keppler DC

“Chronic pain treatment means identifying the correct cause which is usually a slipped or rotated vertebra, an alignment problem, twisting of the spine, binding of the spine, a coupling or connection problem between two or more vertebrae. Which disturbs the disc or discs causing many back pains without the mentioned above. With these being identified and corrected the pain continues on and on”

-James Keppler DC

INTRODUCTION

Chronic pain is pain that lasts for more than 3 months. It can be caused by many things like an injury, illness, or medical condition. Living with chronic pain can make it hard to do normal activities and enjoy life. The good news is that chiropractors like Dr. Keppler have new ways to help patients manage chronic pain without drugs or surgery.

WHAT CAUSES CHRONIC PAIN

There are a few common causes of chronic pain:

• Injuries – Back injuries, neck injuries, etc. can cause long-term pain
• Arthritis – Swelling in joints that causes stiffness and aches
• Headaches/Migraines – Frequent or constant head pain
• Nerve damage – Pins and needles feeling or burning pain

Chronic nerve pain is caused by the above distortions in the spine streatching or blocking near flow in some way

How to treat chronic pain: Finding the exact pinch, distortion, twist, compression this what causes most all chronic nerve pain.

GOALS OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE

The goals of chiropractic care for chronic pain are:

• Reduce inflammation that sensitizes nerves
• Improve joint mobility
• Relax tight muscles
• Optimize nerve flow
• Restore normal motion patterns
• Prevent future injuries

This helps ease pain signals and allows the body to heal itself.

KEY TAKEAWAY:

Chiropractors use a drug-free, hands-on approach to give your body not just managed pain but correct the spinal distortions causing chronic pain.

SOFT TISSUE THERAPY

• More mobility, less tension
• Improves blood flow

HEAT/ICE THERAPY

TRACTION

• Gentle, prolonged stretching
• Creates space between joints
• Reduces nerve pressure

LOW-LEVEL LASER THERAPY

• Uses light to reduce inflammation

LIFESTYLE CHANGES

Dr. Keppler also offers advice on lifestyle changes to help manage pain, like:

• Exercise – Strengthen muscles, lose weight
• Diet – Anti-inflammatory foods
• Sleep – Quality rest reduces sensitivity
• Stress management – Relaxation helps pain

Many patients with chronic or severe pain, also including those who have had back surgery, find themselves very limited in doctors who can help them treat pain post-op.

Chiropractic Care Vs Pain Management

Pain management, which is a lot of cover-up. Pain medications such as opioid drugs that numb and block the pain signals that are the electrical stimulation and electrical impulses from the nervous system that in my opinion carry significant risks such as:

Allowing the joint pain disturtions to get word

Blocks treatment and correction thus not allowing for chronic pain relief

• No dangerous drugs
• Non-invasive and gentler
• Treats root cause not just symptoms
