Pain massage and treatment
Physical therapy is one of the ways to treat pain, especially for chronic pain. It involves many different types of pain management methods, including massage or pain massage. The specific method and content depends on the patient's pain level and the body's tolerance. Our pain therapist will understand the cause and location of each patient's pain, and then recommend what methods can be used for pain treatment.
How does pain therapy help relieve chronic pain?
Pain therapy should be performed at least 2-4 days a week for 30 minutes a day. This can help you relieve chronic pain in your body and strengthen your muscles, including improving muscle strength, endurance, joint stability, muscle and joint flexibility, etc. In addition, a consistent exercise habit will also help control chronic pain and prevent you from suffering from pain. Regular exercise can help you maintain your body's mobility without declining due to chronic pain.
Pain treatment can address the physical problems of inflammation, muscle stiffness, and soreness through exercise, muscle training, and pain massage, but it can also help the body heal itself by stimulating the body's natural pain-relieving chemicals, with equally good results.

In fact, pain massage can relieve pain in many ways, including pain treatment by relaxing muscles and joints, and can also reduce stress and anxiety. Studies have shown that if people have hand massages four times a week, their hand pain is reduced and their grip strength is improved. Compared with those who have not received hand massages, those who receive massages also have better sleep quality, are less likely to experience anxiety and depression, and their body and mind become healthier.
However, in certain specific situations, any pain massage is not recommended: for example, massaging an inflamed skin area may worsen the condition due to friction during massage; in addition, massage should not be performed on infected parts of the body because there is a risk of spreading the infection; people with heart problems, infectious diseases, phlebitis, etc. should avoid pain massage treatment to prevent their condition from worsening.
Different people can tolerate different levels of pain, so pain massage therapy should be performed carefully and cautiously, and adjustments will be made during the process according to the patient's adaptability. It is important to know that massage pain therapy does not necessarily require people to endure a lot of pain to be effective. If you feel uncomfortable, as long as you tell the therapist about your concerns frankly, they can develop a set of pain massage therapy that is suitable for you, so that you can accept it and see the effect.
