How Naturopathic Medicine Can Help You Manage Symptoms, Reduce Pain, and Improve Health
You Have Options – There’s Always Something You Can Do
If you’ve been told that spinal surgery is not an option for you, you may feel uncertain about how to manage your symptoms. Naturopathic medicine offers effective, evidence-based strategies to help relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and enhance mobility, allowing you to manage your symptoms and help improve health alongside movement and rehabilitation therapy.

- Acupuncture: Research shows acupuncture can reduce chronic pain and improve nerve function.
- Nutritional Support: This can include omega-3 fatty acids, magnesium, and vitamin D help decrease inflammation and support nerve health.
2. Musculoskeletal & Nervous System Support
- Targeted Dietary Support and Personalized Supplement Recommendations: This could include collagen and silicon for disc and connective tissue health and B vitamins and alpha-lipoic acid for nerve repair.
- Hydrotherapy & Contrast Therapy: Alternating hot and cold therapies improve circulation, reduce stiffness, and support tissue repair.
3. Lifestyle & Mind-Body Techniques
- Sleep Optimization: Proper spinal alignment during sleep and anti-inflammatory bedtime routines enhance recovery.
