Gut health has a huge impact on whole-body health and while it can vigorously boost your immune system, if compromised it can also have a very detrimental effect on your health. Gut health contributes to heart health, brain health, improved mood, healthy sleep, and effective digestion because these are all linked by the nerves which relate to the balance of bacteria in the gut microbiome which are also responsible for affecting your emotions and the way your brain processes information from your senses. 

Anger, anxiety, sadness, elation — all of these feelings can trigger symptoms in the gut. Therefore, a person's stomach or intestinal distress can be the cause or the product of anxiety, stress, or depression. That's because the brain and the gastrointestinal system are intimately connected. By taking care of your gut you can encourage brain health and mental ability but also treat physical diseases such as cancer and autoimmune disorders. 

It is important to take good care of your gut and your stomach lining because a damaged stomach lining allows harmful microbes to attack your stomach and intestinal tissue, leading to illness. The good news is that you can repair your stomach lining and reinvigorate your digestive health at Pain Clinic International where our practitioners are equipped to transform your life whether you’re suffering from gastroesophageal reflux disease, gallstones, celiac disease, ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic constipation or even Chrone’s disease.

COLONIC HYDROTHERAPY

Colon cleansing, also known as colonic irrigation or colonic hydrotherapy, involves flushing the colon with fluids to remove waste. It’s a practice that has been practiced since ancient times with benefits that are based on the premise that digestive waste can be a toxin to the body which causes illnesses such as cancers, obesity, IBS, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis etc. Colon cleansing makes the digestive system more effective and promotes healthy bacteria to fight these types of infections. It also helps in maintaining regularity and is an aid in the prevention of digestive disorders such as constipation and bloating. This can lead to decreased energy and concentration levels and a lack of the body’s ability to absorb essential nutrients and vitamins. 

Our Hydrotherapists are fully trained and educated to perform colonic irrigation. At Pain Clinic International we provide a safe and confidential environment for you both before and after your treatments. We make certain that only new, disposable equipment and protective gear is used. Both our male and female practitioners exercise extreme caution when conducting our treatments and our hygienists always use a proper disinfection routine and disposable equipment. 

All hydrotherapy treatments are followed up with a diet plan and recommendations for other treatment programs that would be necessary to continue to have a healthy colon. Colon hydrotherapy helps kick start your weight loss program, assists in detox and can help with fertility.

VISCERAL MANIPULATIONS

Visceral manipulation is a gentle way to improve the functioning of individual organs, the systems the organs function within, and the structural integrity of the entire body. Our manual therapists use this technique to assist the body's organs (e.g. bladder, bowel, uterus, etc) and other structures, like muscles, fascia, ligaments, and joints to increase visceral mobility (how well your organs can contract and release as needed.) Visceral manipulation involves abdominal massage that combines pressing, deep strokes, and friction to strip away any adhesions you may have.

At Pain Clinic International we help restore the pliable, mobile state that helps your organs get the circulation, nutrients, and suppleness they need to function properly, which in turn will help to repair your gastro-intestinal tract and improve your overall health and wellness. Our physicians may recommend other treatments such as acupuncture or bone setting and will provide you with information on our vitamin and supplement range to balance your energy and promote tissue or injury repair.

Other health benefits of visceral manipulation include: reduced chronic muscle pain, less bloating and constipation, improvements with uterine fibroids and cysts, reduced joint pain, improved sciatica, relief from carpal tunnel, less trouble from “old” injuries, diminished symptoms of fibromyalgia and improved digestion

**We recommend ongoing treatments to all of our patients to maintain optimal health in line with our philosophy that prevention is better than cure.

At Pain Clinic we offer various types of massage therapy from relaxing massage to sports injury repair massage. The most beneficial massage therapy treatment for you depends entirely on goals. Massage is used to treat muscle tension and relive tightness, as a way to reduce stress and anxiety and as a form of sports therapy to treat old muscle injuries. 

REMEDIAL MASSAGE (RMT)

This is the systematic assessment and treatment of the muscles, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissues of the body to assist in rehabilitation and pain and injury management. All of our remedial therapists have up-to-date knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology which help to determine the areas in the body that need the most focus. 

SPORTS THERAPY MASSAGE

Sports Therapy Massage helps to condition the muscles of athletes of all skill levels. Our trained health and wellness professionals identify the frequency and types of physical activities of our clients and then use the information to apply the proper massage techniques to various muscle groups. 

LOMI LOMI

Lomi Lomi is a restorative Hawaiian massage that works gently, yet deeply into the muscles with continuous, flowing strokes. This allows the recipient to relax due to the hypnotic effect, bringing your mind to a place of absolute stillness. Touch, rhythm and ancient wisdom come together, allowing healing to occur.

LYMPHATIC MASSAGE

A lymphatic drainage massage is a form of gentle massage that encourages the movement of lymph fluids around the body. The fluid in the lymphatic system helps remove waste and toxins from bodily tissues. Since fluid can build-up in our bodies, our fully trained professionals use educated touch and light flowing movements to direct toxins to the appropriate organs. This aids the body in diminishing these toxins and encourages oxygen to your cells and is great in conjunction with detox.

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE

Deep tissue massage techniques are used to break up scar tissue and physically break down muscle "knots" or adhesions (bands of painful, rigid tissue) that can disrupt circulation and cause pain, limited range of motion, and inflammation. If you have a pre-existing injury or are post-surgery, deep tissue massage is vital for your recovery. Our therapists encourage all patients to enjoy a deep tissue massage to relieve tension, disperse unwanted tissue and encourage blood flow.
