A Complete Recovery Strategy
Step 1: Gradual Exposure Therapy
To avoid pain, we tend to limit our physical movement in injured areas. This usually leads to our affected areas becoming even more reactive/sensitive. We carefully reintroduce movement to affected areas through a personalized plan. This method helps your central nervous system rebuild its tolerance, effectively reducing sensitivity and alleviating pain.
Step 3: Pain Reprocessing Therapy
Misinterpretation of warning signals from the central nervous system is a common contributor to chronic pain. By developing effective coping strategies and deepening your understanding of pain mechanisms, we address misinterpreted signals from your nervous system that contribute to chronic pain.
Step 2: Recovery and Nourishment
Inadequate recovery can worsen inflammation and increase pain sensitivity. We emphasize anti-inflammatory nutrition, quality sleep, and stress management to provide the necessary support for your body to heal, enhancing resilience and overall well-being.
Step 4: Personalized Support and Accountability
Our dedicated team provides regular consultations and progress evaluations, ensuring you receive individualized support throughout your recovery journey. Our services include regular consultations with your designated professionals and a dedicated accountability representative. Through consistent progress evaluations, we guarantee personalized support and an optimized recovery experience.
The Bio-Psycho-Social Model
Bridge Capacity Analogy
Chronic pain is a complex experience influenced by a combination of biological, psychological, and social factors. Pain is more than just tissue damage; your inflammation and the sensitivity of your central nervous systems are also linked with different stressors playing a role in our pain experience. To illustrate this complexity, consider the Bridge Capacity Analogy. Imagine your body as a bridge designed to carry a certain amount of weight—its capacity. The various stressors in your life—such as physical injuries, emotional stress, inflammation, and lifestyle factors—are like vehicles adding load to the bridge. When the load exceeds the bridge’s capacity, strain occurs, leading to pain.
Our objective is to prevent your “bridge” from becoming overloaded by either reducing the load and/or increasing the bridge’s capacity:
involves identifying and addressing each of your biopsychosocial stressors. This includes managing tissue damage, decreasing CNS sensitivity, reducing inflammation, alleviating emotional stress, improving recovery strategies, relieving muscle tightness, and strengthening weak links in your movement patterns.
focuses on empowering you to build resilience. This is achieved through education, developing a proper understanding of pain mechanisms, and incorporating targeted exercise rehabilitation to enhance your body’s ability to handle stressors.
By recognizing the multifaceted nature of pain and addressing both the load and the bridge’s capacity, we implement a more comprehensive and lasting approach to pain relief. This holistic strategy not only alleviates current discomfort but also equips you with the tools to manage and prevent future pain effectively
