At Alternative Health Clinic in Greensboro, our practice extends beyond chiropractic care to include massage therapy, physiotherapy and other pain management techniques. Unlike traditional medical practices, we don't just treat the symptoms of back pain, neck pain and fibromyalgia, we look to underlying causes for the cure.  Whether you're dealing with pain from a car accident, chronic headaches, or need a weight loss plan to overcome the aches and pains of being overweight, we're sure to have what you need to regain your full health and vitality.  Dr. Jeff and his staff may even be able to help you achieve a completely new level of wellness that you've never experienced before.

Our Pain Management Services for Greensboro Residents

Greensboro chiropractor, Dr. Jeff, believes in a "whole person" philosophy to treating pain and illness.  Chronic pain, by and large, can be treated with chiropractic adjustments, and this pain relief can be supported and perpetuated by using other disciplines, such as massage therapy, physiotherapy and lifestyle coaching.  Stress-related pain, such as fibromyalgia, also responds amazingly well to these other modes of treatment.

This approach differs from the symptomatic approach that's commonly used in medicine.  In the symptomatic approach, you may be given pain pills to deal with back pain, neck pain or other ailments, but largely, the cause of the pain is ignored.  Treating the symptoms also tends to be a "cookie cutter" approach, and the lingering pain from a car accident could be treated the same as chronic headaches.

Our chiropractor will design a custom care plan based on your needs and abilities.  Naturally, injuries from a car accident will be handled differently than non-trauma related pains.  Your initial consultation will involve a development of your care plan following consultation and evaluation by our chiropractor.  

Typically, this will fall into three stages:  Corrective care, Rehabilitative care, and Wellness/Maintenance care.  How exactly chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, therapeutic exercise, and possibly weight loss and dietary advice fit into this framework is what the first consultation works out.

After the first consultation, it's important that you stick with the care plan you are given, both for pain and weight loss (if applicable).  In both cases, the relapsed condition is all too often worse than the initial condition.  Massage therapy and physiotherapy are no less important than your adjustments for your overall health.

If you live in the Greensboro area, and suffer from chronic pain in your back or neck, your head, arms or legs, or you've been in a car accident, don't hesitate to call us for an appointment.  If you need a weight loss program to relieve pressure from your joints, we can also be of help.  Our chiropractic clinic can treat your pain, and we will gladly refer you to another specialist if it's beyond our scope of practice.
