✔ Improve blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues
✔ Reduce inflammation and cellular stress
✔ Support tissue repair and regeneration
✔ Modulate nerve activity to decrease pain signals

Week 6: Service Spotlight — Massage Therapy

Massage therapy can help reduce pain in a variety of ways. including:

✔️Alleviates muscle tension: Massage relaxes tight muscles and reduces trigger points, lowering nociceptive signaling that contributes to pain.
Improves circulation: Increased blood flow helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues and removes inflammatory byproducts.
✔️Modulates pain signals: Stimulation of soft tissues can activate the body's pain-regulating systems (e.g., endorphins, endocannabinoids) and dampen pain perception.
✔️Reduces inflammation: Gentle, sustained pressure may lower inflammatory markers and edema in affected areas.
✔️Enhances movement and function: Better range of motion and flexibility can reduce strain on surrounding muscles and joints.
✔️Promotes relaxation and stress relief: Decreased stress hormones (like cortisol) can lessen pain sensitivity and improve mood, which often worsens chronic pain.
✔️Supports self-care and awareness: Regular sessions can help individuals identify pain triggers and adopt better posture and ergonomics.

Week 4: Service Spotlight! Calmare® Scrambler Therapy

Calmare® Scrambler Therapy represents a significant advancement in the treatment of chronic pain, providing hope to those who have exhausted conventional options. The therapy utilizes a device that sends non-painful electrical signals through the skin to "scramble" the pain signals being sent to the brain. This mechanism effectively alters how the brain perceives pain, allowing for relief without the use of medication. Read more about this innovative therapy and reach out with any questions!

Week 3: Exercise Therapy

💪🏻 Exercise therapy can help reduce chronic pain by gently improving muscle strength, flexibility, and aerobic fitness, which can lessen the stress on joints and nerves. It promotes better blood flow, supports healthier weight, and releases endorphins—your body's natural painkillers. Tailored, gradual programs (often including aerobic, strength, and flexibility components) can decrease pain intensity, improve function, and boost mood and sleep. Dr. Orlando’s office features a state of the art gym, offering a variety of different exercise options to get you moving pain free! Below is an example of a simple progression of exercises to build up strength gradually.
