Integrative Pain Management
Is pain stopping you from living a full life? Have conventional pain management strategies stopped working? Treat your chronic pain with an integrative approach. Modern medicines provide a diagnosis for your pain but only treat the symptom, not the cause. The best treatment plans are individualized, using both holistic and conventional medicine to help you regain control of your health.
At Akasha Center, we begin by conducting a comprehensive assessment of your pain with Dr. Bren Boston who will spearhead your program design and care. The first consultation begins with an in-depth physical and psychological examination. Your treatment plan is then executed with a team of specialists who understand your pain. The result is better control of your health, fewer flare-ups, and better pain management.
