Can pain meds Cure you? How does the medication find the pain?
How does it locate the pain? In short, it doesn’t! We can stop there and go on to the next topic, but please bear with us as we explain the harmful impact medication has on your body. Please keep in mind that unlike other chiropractors, we are not opposed to medication, but rather against the continued abuse of drugs. Far too many are abusing medication today. Perhaps it is the new normal. Perhaps it is all those television showing young, good-looking healthy people popping in painkillers. Excessive intake of painkillers can kill! That is harsh, but it is a simple truth.
So, how does the medication find the pain? Well, it can‘t! Drugs are dumb. When you ingest a drug of any kind, it enters the bloodstream circulating through and affecting the entire body. Then your liver and kidneys swing into action in an attempt to remove this foreign substance from your body.
If you are in pain, medication can provide relief. Abuse of drugs can lead to more problems. If you are hurt, we can help.

We always encourage all our patients never to self-medicate and always to consult your pharmacist and family doctor before taking medication. In short, how does the medication find the pain? Well, I think we have covered this pretty good.
