Pain Relief from Our Knoxville Chiropractor

Visiting a chiropractor is not just about receiving one or two specific techniques to solve your pain. A chiropractor will discuss your entire health outlook, your specific pain, and the areas of your lifestyle that could help.

Lifestyle is not just diet and exercise. If you have to work through your pain all the time and feel like you have to suck it up to survive, or if you're just the kind of person who doesn't want to show weakness, a chiropractor can help you privately and confidently find the relief you need.

A back massage and spinal adjustment work in the chiropractor's office, but what if they could show you how your job site could make things easier? If our chiropractor has ideas that will help you in your word day, our office can write a letter to help your situation.

Neuropathy, Psychosomatics, and Invisible Parts of Pain

Neuropathy involves the damage or dysfunction to the nerves. Psychosomatic pain is pain that's caused by a psychological problem.

Psychosomatic pain is sometimes a dirty word because many patients think it dismisses their pain. In some cases, professionals are using it to say, "it's all in your head." In other cases, professionals are exactly on the right track with a bigger mental or sensation problem, but the patient feels insulted when that isn't the intention.

Instead of getting mixed up in someone's meaning or intention, understand that psychosomatic problems involve more than just imagining the pain. Your body tenses up due to stress because of a traumatic situation, even if the physical damage is repaired. Your brain tries to protect itself from continued problems.

In many cases, it's out of your control. When medical professionals explore psychosomatic problems, that's what they're getting at; your body is fine, but your brain has signals that disagree with the body. Psychology isn't well understood by many, and the idea that the brain could cause pain even though the affected body parts are fine is an idea that confuses and angers many people.
