TREATMENT GOALS

Treatment Goals at tacoma chiropractor tacoma chiropractic tacoma spinal decompression lakewood family medicine tacoma family medicine tacoma healthcareThe vast majority of pain and illnesses that people present to regular medical doctors with are treated with drugs to cover up or suppress.
For example, knee pain may be treated with Naprosyn or ibuprofen to cover up the pain when in fact, the pain could be due to poor foot biomechanics causing wear and tear, food allergies causing local inflammation or other causes remote from the knee itself.

Ironically, drugs such as pain relievers may help lessen the pain in your joints, but the stop collagen synthesis causing the joint to wear out even faster, thus requiring more and more drugs.

With regular medicine it becomes a vicious circle but with Naturopathic medicine the cycle is broken by finding the cause and providing healing and regeneration of injured body parts and pain combining chiropractic services with natural medicine allows us to not only adjust the injured and painful parts of your spine, neck, shoulders and hips, but to also increase circulation, reduce swelling and congestion, relieve pain and restore normal joint motion and strength.

This all amounts to a comprehensive program that is highly effective and very cost effective because we can offer it all under the same roof.
It is not good enough anymore to simply cover up pain using drugs. Modem patients want to heal their bodies, search for the underlying cause and thereby live healthier, better, pain free lives.
