Successful Pain Management and Treatment of Pain: Part 2

Managing and Curing Your Pain
The Epoch Times: B3 - Health, Dec 16 - 22, 2010

Managing and Curing Your Pain

Interferential Current Therapy (IFC)
Do you experience your back as a hard uneven surface with lowered muscular elasticity reduced neck and shoulder range of motion and highly painful trigger-points? Alternately, you may suffer from sciatic nerve inflammation or some other neuromuscular pain. You probably will not find any better therapeutic solution for these conditions than 3D Interferential Current Therapy (IFC). The innovative methodology of IFC provides a rhythmical shift in interferential field causing a significant anti-inflammatory effect by penetrating into a very deep cellular level. This state-of-the-art equipment provides a great number of specific therapeutic programs that are selected for different purposes, among these are sedation therapy, myokinetic activation, pain reduction, stimulation of blood circulation, stabilization of the vegetative nervous system, and local anesthesia. Acute patients are actually able to feel results just after their initial treatment!

Furthermore, certain cases of partial muscle paralysis or muscle degenerations and reduced join functioning have actually been cured with use of the interferential current therapy making it one of the most effective electrotherapy at the present time. Interferential current therapy (IFC) has the potential to restore muscles contracted over long periods of time, as well as inflamed ligaments damaged by long-term squeeze of the peripheral nerves. IFC stimulation is not only a revolution in the treatment of chronic pain but our therapists, at the Art of Life community health centre, believe that this effective therapeutic stimulation is the best method to pain relief in the treatment of a spinal cord injury or a neuromuscular affliction.

Far Infra Red (FIR)
Another therapeutic technology offered by our therapists is called Far Infra Red (FIR). This modern healing technology was developed by Japanese scientists and it is based on the ancient principles of the IR rays’ absorption by our body providing natural (somebody could say ecological) relief from long-term pain. Knowing whether a problem is in a chronic back or neck pain, migraine, rheumatoid join pain, a complicated or improper-healed bone fracture, fibromyalgia, a discomfort of eczema or psoriasis, all of these problems can be treated with our FIR medical equipment.

Radial Shock Wave Treatment (RSWT)
And last but not least, if you suffer from salt deposits and tendon calcifications, if you have painful spurs in your joints or a frozen shoulder or, if you experience a painful “trigger point” reaction, you will no longer need a surgery procedure to correct these problems. There is an innovative therapeutic technology, providing a non-invasive, outpatient alternative to surgery, called Radial Shock Wave Therapy (RSWT). The medical application of RSWT for the treatment of the trigger points provides amazing results. This effective technology utilizing high-energy, short wavelength sound waves, called shockwaves, was invented by Swiss engineers for fast and effective post-traumatic rehabilitation of Olympic athletes. The RSWT therapy has been used in Switzerland with great success for more than 10 years, and recently, the RSWT treatment has been introduced at the Art of Life Community Health Centre for the cure of our patients. With taking advantage of the Radial Shock Wave therapy any of these problems could be cured for only three sessions of five to ten minutes each.

Studies of the Radial Shock Wave Therapy show:
  • The success rate of this treatment is up to 80%, greater than of surgery.
  • Most patients feel no pain during the treatment, and practically complete pain relief is observed within eight to ten days after the treatment.
  • RSWT therapy does not require the use of anesthesia during the procedure.
As we mentioned before, this technology is based on utilizing high-energy acoustic waves and is similar to a non-invasive method which currently being used in urology practice for breaking up kidney stones. However, the use of the ultrasonic wave in the radial direction makes the procedure much more comfortable.

The Radial Shock Wave Therapy works both mechanically and chemically, and it allows the human body to use its own healing mechanism by stimulating a process of regeneration of new and healthy cells and evacuation of the sick cells in the affected areas of the body. As a result, the RSWT therapy has been known to help speed up the healing process tremendously.
The Swiss DolorClast® medical device is one of the many other options available to our doctors and therapists to diagnose and help you to cure the root of your pain.

We Want to Help You to Eliminate Your Pain
Pain can make you feel like a convict “being chained” to your disease. If you have been suffering from severe chronic pain for months or even years then a precise diagnosis and treatment is an essential key to your freedom from pain and for your future well-being. At the Art of Life centre all of the described treatments are combined with naturopathic and homeopathic practices, as well as particular types of medical and sports massages.

H1N1 Flu Virus Prevention and Treatment: Our Naturopathic Doctor's Approach

Flyer: H1N1 Flu Virus Prevention and Treatment
Author: Dr. Liudmyla Gerus, ND

H1N1 Flu Virus Prevention and Treatment

Symptoms of H1N1

  • Similar to seasonal influenza (flu) including: headache, chills and cough followed by fever, loss of appetite, muscle aches and fatigue, runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes and throat irritation.
  • In some cases nausea, vomiting and diarrhea may occur in adults as well as in children.
  • In more severe cases, or in people with chronic conditions, complications such as pneumonia may develop.

Support your immune system
  • Be an early bird – book a prevention appointment with your Naturopathic Doctor to prepare for flu season
  • Food – eating a diet high in essential fats, complex carbohydrates and plenty of fruits and vegetables.
  • Hands off – avoid touching your face. Wash your hands regularly and thoroughly.
  • Get a full night's sleep – rest regenerates your body. Make your health a priority.
  • Keeping your barrier intact – mucous membranes (such as the lining of nose) must be moist. Check how work your humidifiers at home and at work.
  • Prophylaxis – with direct delivery aerosols of natural remedies into upper respiratory tracts nose, mouth and lungs.

If you do start to feel sick

  • Less and light eating helps your body use its energy to fight the virus rather than on digestion. Avoid sugar because it lowers your immune system and dairy products they increase mucous production.
  • Drink up. Keep well hydrated with water, tea, vegetable broths and diluted juices, while limiting dehydrating fluids like alcohol and coffee.
  • Sleep it off. Your body is working overtime when fighting a virus. Plenty of good rest is essential as your body is able to focus energy on defense mechanisms while you sleep.
  • Immune-supporting natural remedies vitamins (A, C, D, E), minerals (Ca, Zn), herbs (Echinacea) and homeopathics will help you to support immune system and relieve symptoms.
  • Parenteral therapy – more advanced technique that can be done by specially trained professional or ND only in clinic environment. It is delivery of natural remedies directly into blood vessels and will boost immune system, prevent decease or faster recovery if you are already sick.

If you are experiencing these symptoms you should immediately contact your health care provider, including your Naturopathic Doctor (ND), or Telehealth Ontario at 1-866-797-0000.

A Naturopathic Doctor can help you support your immune system with a natural approach to health. A strong immune system not only reduces the risk of getting sick, but may also reduce the severity of illness if you do get sick.

Stay in Good Health with Us!

How can we help you? Diagnostics by Voll method can help you to discover the condition of your health by touching specific points on the hands and feet.

Modern physiotherapy, acupuncture and homeopathy provide a safe, natural and effective treatment according to the results of diagnostics by Voll method.

Indications of Acupuncture, Homeopathy and Modern Physiotherapy:
  • Pain syndromes: neck, lower back, joint pain
  • Ligament sprains and muscle strains
  • Allergy reaction: polynosis, asthma
  • Arthritic and arthrosis conditions
  • Gastrointestinal diseases: ulcers, hepatitis, pancreatitis, colitis, cholecystitis
  • Gynecological diseases: fertility problems, adnexitis
  • Hormonal disorders
  • Pediatric diseases
  • Accident injuries
  • Neurological conditions including strokes, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, insomnia
  • Cardiorespiratory conditions
  • Urinary tract infections: prostatitis, cystitis
  • Nose, ear and throat problems: tonsillitis, otitis, pharyngitis
  • Skin problems: dermatitis, acne
  • Sexual dysfunction disorders
There are many different forms of treatment available. Take a look on relevant treatment options and their benefits:

1. Iontophoresis
Iontophoresis is an alternative drug delivery system. By applying a low-level electrical current to a similarly charged drug solution, iontophoresis repels the drug ions through the skin to the underlying tissue. Iontophoresis is widely used for treating acute or sub-acute inflammatory conditions and acute flare-ups of chronic inflammatory conditions.

2. Laser Therapy: Quant Therapy
The goal of laser therapy is to deliver light energy units from infrared laser radiation, called photons, to damaged cells. The consensus of experts is that photons absorbed by the cells thought laser therapy stimulate the mitochondria to accelerate production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This biochemical compound composed of adenine, the sugar ribose, and three phosphate groups increase in cell energy is used to transform live cells from a state of illness to a stable, healthy state.

3. Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy uses high-frequency sound waves to produce heat that:
  • Reduces pain
  • Speeds metabolism and improves circulation
  • Breaks up and softens scar tissue and adhesions
  • Reduces chronic inflammation or swelling
  • Reduces irritation to nerve roots
  • Enhances the body's natural healing process
4. Shortwave Therapy
Shortwave therapy is the therapeutic application of high frequency electrical energy in either the electromagnetic or electrical field, commonly referred to as "diathermy" which is known for its heating effects. Vasodilation, increased circulation, increased out-flow of lymph, increased removal of waste products, relaxation of spastic muscles and an overall reduction of pain are attributed to therapeutic heat. Shortwave therapy facilitates exactly dosed and localized haeting of tissue areas both close to the surface and at depth.

5. Bioresonance Therapy: BRT
Bio resonance therapy is the correction of body's functions under influence of electromagnetic oscillations of strictly determined parameters, similarly to a camerton replying to a certain frequency spectrum of an acoustic wave. The main idea of applying resonance in medicine is that by a correct selection of frequency and a form of medicinal electromagnetic influence it's possible to amplify a normal physiological and attenuate pathological oscillation of the human body.

6. Acupuncture
Needling the acupuncture points stimulates the nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord and brain. These chemicals will either change the experience of pain or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body's own internal regulating system. The improved energy and biochemical balance produced by acupuncture results in stimulating the body's natural healing abilities and in promoting physical and emotional well-being.

7. Homeopathy
Homeopathy is a safe and effective system of natural healing that has been verified experimentally and clinically in the everyday lives of millions of people around the world for over 200 years. Homeopathy is a system of medicine which is based on the principle of similars or 'like cures like'. If a substance can cause symptoms in a healthy person, then it can also treat and remove similar symptoms in a sick person.
