Two types of chronic pain our team can treat in our Havelock, NC office
Our Havelock, North Carolina team knows finding the right chronic pain treatment plan for you doesn’t have to be hard. In fact, our team can help you build a therapy plan to treat two types of chronic pain.
One type of chronic pain we may be able to help you treat is somatic pain. This type of chronic pain is also known as nociceptive pain, and both of these titles refer to pain located in your muscles or other soft tissues. Our team may be able to help you treat many types of somatic pain, including back pain, arthritis and headaches.
A second type of chronic pain our team may be able to help you with is neuropathic pain. Whereas somatic pain comes from your soft tissues, our team knows neuropathic pain comes from an issue with the nerves themselves. Often our patients who experience this type of pain report that it feels different from somatic pain. For instance, you may notice that your pains may feel sharper and more stabbing. One condition where you may experience this type of pain is with diabetic neuropathy.
No matter which of these two types of chronic pain you have, our team is here to help you. We’ll create a personalized treatment plan for you that may include therapies such as:
- Deep tissue massage
- Heat and cold therapy
- Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) treatments
With these and other therapies in your treatment plan, our team may be able to help you achieve several benefits. For instance, we may be able to help you reduce the level of pain you’re experiencing and improve your overall quality of life. If you’re ready to find out how much chronic pain treatment from our Havelock, North Carolina team may help you, then there’s only one step you’ll need to take.
