Chronic Pain Management
Plant Medicine
In Clarence Town, plant-based medicine is being recognised as a supportive option for managing chronic pain and long-term health conditions. These natural remedies contain active compounds that interact with the body's endocannabinoid system, helping to regulate key physiological functions.
Our independent medical practitioners may prescribe plant medicine for conditions such as chronic pain, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and nausea related to chemotherapy. The aim is to provide relief and improve quality of life where other treatments may be limited.
Acupuncture
Chronic pain can make it difficult to understand what is happening in your body or how to manage it. At Clarence Town Healthcare, our doctors offer acupuncture as a supportive option for pain relief without the side effects of medications.
Our laser pain management clinic uses advanced low-level laser therapy to deliver acupuncture treatments in a safe, precise manner. Patients with a variety of chronic pain conditions benefit from this approach aimed at restoring comfort and mobility.
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)
Low-level laser therapy is an effective treatment for managing pain and inflammation, extending beyond cosmetic use. At our Laser Pain Management Clinic, doctors use this approach to support patients experiencing ongoing or intense pain, helping them return to normal daily routines.
Combining laser therapy with focused chiropractic care on areas such as the neck, shoulders, and back often produces better results. With advanced equipment and clinical expertise, our doctors assist in reducing discomfort from chronic conditions or post-surgical recovery.
