Dr. Alvin Philipose DC/ Charnelle Dean APRN
Chronic neck and back pain can be debilitating, especially when you're living with it day in and day out. There's no quick fix—the only way to really get relief from the symptoms is to try different treatments that are tailored to your specific needs. And since there's no one-size-fits-all solution, it can be tough to know where to start.
One thing you can do is dry needling, a treatment that involves inserting thin needles into your back or neck muscles. Dry needling is currently being used by Dr. Philipose as a way to treat various pain conditions. Research has shown that dry needling can help with chronic low back pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, and upper and lower extremity muscle pain. Dr. Philipose will carefully insert a fine needle into a inflamed trigger point and gently break the spasm and inflammation allowing for an almost immediate pain relief. To see if Dry Needling may be right for you, call Dr. Philipose at 405-848-7246.
