Dear Patients and Friends,
Muscular Skeletal pain, such as joint pain and muscle aches are something we all experience in our lives, especially as we age. Sadly, these days, the drug industry bombards us with drug advertisements, prompting us to buy pain meds that often mask the real cause of the pain. This leads to a vicious cycle of more pain and more meds that, in some cases, lead to addiction with devasting consequences. According to research, back pain, for example, is still the number one cause of work absenteeism, decreased vitality, and disability in the United States. (Low-Back-Pain-Fact-Sheet)
The Akasha team is committed to treating not just the symptom but the cause. We are proud to offer Pain Management Services that utilize an integrative science-proven natural protocol for long term healing.
This month Dr. Boston writes about Natural Pain Relief. Board-certified in pain management with expertise in natural modalities, such as prolotherapy that rebuilds injured muscles, Dr. Boston is an integrative physician. She has worked with a wide range of people, including athletes using her signature approach to both acute and chronic pain. Our Integrative Physical Therapist and Ph.D. candidate in somatic psychology, Danél Lombard discusses how our bodies Are More than Just a Machine but a living entity UNIQUE TO YOU! She integrates her fantastic work with Dr. Boston's, making sure you treat your body with the attention that it needs integrating love, wonder, and gratitude in your treatment.
But we could not talk about aches and pain without addressing genetics and our DNA, the blueprint of who we are and how our bodies function. Dr. Sobczyk, our genetic specialist, writes about the Genetic Components to Addiction, including pain medication . We are in the midst of a devastating opioid crisis in our county. Understanding the genetic components of addiction and how you may be susceptible to it can help you make crucial choices during times of pain.
And lastly, no matter where you are, we're BRINGING OUR TEAM CLOSER to you via our TELEHEALTH VIDEO CARE SERVICES. It is safe, HIPPA compliant, cost-effective, and EASY. Whether you live too far, cannot take time away from your busy life, need a second opinion - or just want to review your labs from the convenience of your home or work, AKASHA'S GOT YOUR HEALTH!
