How can manual therapy relieve my chronic pain?
It’s easy to think that manual therapy is more work than it’s worth, especially if you’ve never learned a lot about the treatment methods. However, manual therapy can be the difference between a lifetime of pain and maintaining control over your life!
If your condition limits your life, our Victoria, BC osteopathic therapists will determine the best way to treat it. One of the key purposes of manual therapy is pain management and treating the issue at its source, rather than masking symptoms with drugs.
Our physical tests at Jenna Howe Osteopathy and Concussion Recovery are performed to assess weak and vulnerable parts of the body, in order to focus on positions with a limited range of motion and to identify any imbalances in gait or balance. All of these tests help our therapists identify the root causes of your chronic pain.
Once the assessment is completed, an osteopathic therapist will develop a recovery plan that is tailored to your individual needs. Your recovery plan will include both in-clinic and at-home therapy to ensure that you remain safe while still engaged in treatments at all times.
Treatment plans will also include advanced, calming manual therapy methods to help restore soft tissue and joint mobility, as well as pain-relieving procedures and gentle targeted exercises to improve strength
There is no need to be nervous about manual therapy! You have so much to gain from recovery, so what’s holding you back?
Why did I develop chronic pain?
Chronic injury, diabetes, anxiety, and feeling depressed are all things that can work together to cause your neurological system to constantly be on high alert.
Chronic pain can show its ugly head in the form of back pain, joint pain, nerve pain, or headaches. Many chronic pain conditions arise from a neurophysiological context.
It often happens because of one of the following causes:
Workplace Injuries
Overuse Injuries
Surgical Procedures
Disease
What else should I know about chronic pain?
Persistent pain lasting 3-6 months or longer is considered chronic. There are many reasons why people can experience chronic pain, and seeking medical help is the most responsible thing to do about it.
Acute pain can be described as pain that goes away on its own in a couple of hours, days, or weeks. For example, a mild ankle sprain is considered acute, as the pain may subside within a few days.
Acute and chronic pain can both have a significant impact on your quality of life by limiting your mobility, creating dependence on prescription drugs, or even causing anxiety and depression. However, all of this can be avoided with the help of manual therapy.

Our osteopathic therapists are highly trained movement professionals who can identify physical problems and address the underlying physiological causes of these problems.
