Comprehensive pain history
Treatment starts with taking a comprehensive pain history. The doctor will ask about previous diseases such as infections or accidents, exposure to toxins from the environment or dental fillings, allergies, diet etc. Another focus is the type and intensity of pain (what triggers them, in what situations do they become better or worse…). The patient’s personal circumstances are of course also taken into account.
Holistic diagnosis – individual pain therapy
Pain can have a wide variety of causes, which is why taking the patient’s pain history is followed by a comprehensive physical examination. The focus here is on the myofascial system (joints, ligaments and muscles), on trigger and tender points (special pain points) and the patient’s individual metabolic situation (for instance, degree of acidification, supply of minerals, trace elements, vitamins and amino acids). Any indications of problems from toxins and noxious substances found when taking the medical history are also verified through corresponding tests.
Based on this individual, holistic diagnosis, a therapy plan is drawn up together with the patient. This means that following comprehensive consultation, the patient is co-responsible for deciding what measures should be taken.
Depending on individual requirements, pain therapy at HG Naturklinik Michelrieth can include medication, neural therapy, acupuncture, acupressure, therapeutic local anaesthesia, intracutaneous and subcutaneous stimulation (injections into and under the skin), naturopathic mind/body medicine and regulation therapy, infusion and oxygen therapy, biofeedback techniques and electroacupuncture).
Treatments from the area of physical therapy include high-level remedial gymnastics, special massages, lymphatic drainage as well as aquatic, mud and clay treatments.
Diet also plays a major role in pain. Just by changing diet, a multitude of diseases can be reduced by up to 80%. This is why at our clinic, you are supported by qualified nutritionists, who can team up with you to develop an individual dietary plan you can follow at home.
