Pain Management

Control the pain and recover your life

 

Living with pain when conventional medical options have been exhausted is not unusual, but often unnecessary.

 

At Toronto Centre for Naturopathic Medicine we have extensive expertise in dealing with all types of pain: be it through eliminating the triggers causing pain symptoms using novel approaches to pain treatment, such as Bowen Therapy (Bowen Technique); integrating use of time-honoured pain treatments such as acupuncture into your care regimen; or reducing the dosage and adverse effects caused by conventional pain medications through use of a complimentary natural medicine.

 

Below are included some of the common conditions that we treat.
