- Combating everyday pain with a long term solution
- With Living Life Well Clinic’s Pain Management Program for CIGNA Global Healthcare members
People experience pain every day. It is a form of suffering or discomfort that is usually caused by genes, age, strenuous activity, poor posture, obesity, pregnancy, smoking and mental contributors like anxiety, depression and heart break. Pain is an issue that is important to address because it limits the capability of individuals and constrains them from doing more. Manifestations include stinging, burning sensation, soreness, stiffness, difficulty in breathing, etc.
Finding the root cause
The first step to cure pain is to determine its root cause – where is the pain coming from. Not everyone may know but the usual primary cause of pain is rooted in your back – whether it is difficulty in sleeping, bad pain in your gums, struggle in turning your head or pulling pain from buttocks to legs. Back pain is one of the most common health issue that affects all age levels. It is so prevalent that it can strike to anyone, even those who have no risk factors at all.

Finding a long-term solution
Most back pains go away on its own, but it usually takes a while. Although resting can help, staying one or two days in bed can make it worse. It even affects the way you function and it decreases one’s efficiency at home and work. Taking over-the-counter pain relievers can help for a little while, but prolonged medication may just add up to your body’s toxic state.
The Farm at San Benito through its partnership with Living Life Well Integrative Medical Group Inc is now offering CIGNA Global Healthcare accredited treatments to address occupational and chronic pain through its pain management program.
