According to the American Academy of Pain Medicine, pain is associated with a wide range of injury and disease, and is sometimes the disease itself. Some conditions may have pain and associated symptoms arising from a discrete cause, such as post-operative pain or pain associated with a malignancy, or may be conditions in which pain constitutes the primary problem, such as neuropathic pains or headaches. Millions suffer from acute or chronic pain every year and the effects of pain exact a tremendous cost on our country in health care costs, rehabilitation and lost worker productivity, as well as the emotional and financial burden it places on patients and their families.

Eugene – For some of you, your visit to Eugene Healing Center may be the first time you are considering Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) therapy. Our patients keep returning because they appreciate our focus on several basic principles.Our emphasis is on the restoration of function, not simply the relief of pain. With restored function (i.e. range of motion, strength, endurance, etc.) the body’s ability to heal itself is highlighted and encouraged.
