At Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine, we are well aware of the life troubles and psychological pressure that chronic pain brings to patients. Chronic pain, such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, back pain, etc., often requires long-term and ongoing management. Traditional Chinese Medicine offers a variety of treatments that not only relieve pain but also improve overall health. The following are some of the main treatment strategies used by Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine for chronic pain:
1. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment
Traditional Chinese medicine is one of the core methods of treating chronic pain. We carefully prepare personalized Chinese medicine prescriptions based on the patient's specific symptoms, constitution and cause of disease. These prescriptions usually include medicinal materials with the functions of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, warming the meridians and dispersing cold, tonifying the kidneys and aphrodisiac, etc., aiming to fundamentally adjust the body constitution and improve pain conditions.
2. Acupuncture treatment
Acupuncture is an effective non-drug treatment that stimulates specific acupuncture points to promote the flow of qi and blood and relieve muscle tension and pain. For chronic pain, such as cervical spondylosis or lumbar disc herniation, acupuncture can significantly reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
3. Massage and massage
Tuina and massage are important parts of traditional Chinese medicine physical therapy. Manual manipulation can relax muscles, enhance blood circulation, and relieve pain. These techniques are particularly suitable for treating musculoskeletal-related chronic pain, such as frozen shoulder and chronic low back pain.
4. Moxibustion treatment
Moxibustion treatment uses burning mugwort to warm acupuncture points, which can help dispel cold and dampness and relieve pain caused by cold and damp obstruction, such as joint pain caused by rheumatoid arthritis. The deep heat effects of moxibustion provide a gentle yet effective treatment option for those suffering from chronic pain.
5. Diet and lifestyle advice
In addition to direct treatment methods, Guiyuan Traditional Chinese Medicine also emphasizes comprehensive lifestyle adjustments. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, appropriate dietary adjustments can enhance physical fitness and reduce pain attacks. For example, it is recommended to increase foods rich in anti-inflammatory properties such as ginger, garlic and fish oil, and to reduce intake of sugar and processed foods.
