Why Are Non-Invasive Pain Management Techniques Important?

Non-invasive pain management techniques are an important staple of modern medicine and clinical therapies. In fact, the positive trend and demand for non-invasive pain management options stem from both technological and societal changes that we have seen in recent history.

Technology and pain management will always have a strong relationship, as technologies develop new and improved ways to optimally reduce chronic and acute pains in affected populations. As medical and clinical technologies are improved, they seek to increase the effectiveness of administering treatments while also reducing the impact or side effects that the patient will experience.

Social drivers that create the demand for non-invasive pain management techniques stem from both the knowledge of technological advances, as well as the modern approach to wellness — as in recent years people around the world have begun to look at healthcare as a quest for longterm health rather than a simple cause and effect (injury and treatment) relationship.

In addition to societal and technological advances pushing for new and improved non-invasive pain management techniques, people that experience pain, whether that be chronic or acute, want more options. Rather than simply going to their physician and getting an opioid painkiller prescription to treat the symptoms of their injury or condition, patients want to be able to choose from a long list of options that allow themselves to take their health into their own hands — choosing the treatment that most closely fits their beliefs and long term health goals.

In summation, there are a number of different reasons that non-invasive pain management techniques have become increasingly important. Whether it be the strides made in medicine or clinical therapies, the social influence on wellness, or the simple need for those affected by pain to have a say in how they are treated, it is clear that non-invasive pain management techniques are the future. After all, who would want an invasive treatment that leaves them with side effects when they can have their pain treated with a non-invasive therapy?

What Does This Mean For You, As a Physician Or Clinician?

While a monumental shift in the framework of pain treatment might seem overwhelming, there is really no reason to worry about how your practice or clinic will be affected. In fact, it is rather easy to adapt to the modern shift in technology, treatment, and social awareness. But how?

Continuing your medical and clinical education is an important part of having a successful practice or clinic that produces proven pain management results. As technologies and social demands change, it is important that you change with them. A simple way to do so is to attend various clinics, seminars, and workshops that pique your professional interests and align with your desired direction in clinical therapies and medicine. If your desired direction is to offer non-invasive pain management treatments to those that are affected for pain, we suggest that you study and become more aware of non-invasive clinical therapies like the NGUI-MATRIX.

What Are Some Non-Invasive Pain Management Techniques That Are In Demand?

As a medical professional, it is pretty clear to see that providing your patients with non-invasive pain management treatments is a win-win for all parties involved. You get to do your job, helping people affected by chronic and acute pain, and they get to walk away from the treatment experience pain-free with minimal to no side effects. But what pain management treatments are most in demand by people affected by acute and chronic pain?

Trigger Point Injections

Combining medicine with clinical therapy, trigger point injections are increasingly more popular in recent years than they were in the past. Often times, chronic pain can be caused by musculoskeletal system issues like tightness or other irregularities. Caused by past injuries, stress, and disease, musculoskeletal tightness can become incredibly painful.

Trigger point injections combine the clinical aspect of acupuncture with modern medicine. After finding the correct acupoint, the medical professional administering the trigger point injection will slowly inject sterile salt water or a mix or local anesthetic mixed with steroids into the affected area. After a few short treatments, the person affected by pain should begin to see sustained relief.

TENS & Bioelectric Therapy

When we say non-invasive pain management technique, we are not referring to a treatment where incisions or injections are excluded. Instead, we are simply saying that the technique’s invasiveness is so minimal that there are little to no side effects experienced after the therapy or procedure — and an excellent example of minimally invasive therapies is the use of electric stimulation.

TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) and bioelectric therapy are two therapies that utilize electricity to treat and manage pain. That being said, they both do so in different ways.

TENS, uses electrodes to stimulate the nerves of an affected person in order to scramble the pain signals that are being signaled and sent to the brain. Bioelectric therapy, however, is used to completely block the pain signals that are being sent to the brain. Both of these innovative electric therapies are proven to help reduce peoples’ need for opioid pain medication by up to 50% while recovering from an injury or managing chronic pain.

Physical Therapy

When people think of non-invasive pain management treatments, they typically think of physical therapy first — and for good reason. Physical therapy is one of the most utilized non-invasive pain management techniques in the world.

Chronic pain caused by past injuries, disabilities, or disease can oftentimes be remedied by physical therapy. The stretching and strengthening of muscles, ligaments, and tendons in the areas of the body that are experiencing pain can repair the body to a point that it no longer experiences constant and chronic pain. Often times, TENS and bioelectric therapies are used in conjunction with physical therapy to maximize the recovery of someone affected by pain while also minimizing the pain that they feel as a result of the therapy.

Psychological Therapy

As a clinician or a physician, it is unlikely that you have the bandwidth to take on a professional occupation in psychological therapy. That being said, it is still incredibly important to understand that it can supplement and expedite the recovery process when paired with a non-invasive pain management treatment.

The body reacts to injury, disease, and disorders in both physical and emotional manifestations. The physical manifestation is the pain itself, while the emotional manifestation can be observed as depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and lack of sleep. Pairing non-invasive pain management techniques with psychological reinforcements can help to expedite the treatment process.

Alternative Therapies

While almost all of the non-invasive pain management treatments that we will be discussing today could potentially be labeled as an alternative therapy, there are a few treatments that exemplify the term. Acupuncture, nutritional supplements, massage therapy and chiropractic therapy and osteopathic manipulation are all non-invasive therapies that do not fall under the umbrella of medicine.

In addition to being an alternative therapy or treatment to medicine, alternative therapies can also be used as a complimentary treatment — supplementing the other non-invasive pain management techniques that have been prescribed.

Mind-Body Therapies

As we discussed above when we touched on psychological therapy, the journey of healing chronic pain is just as much of a mental challenge as it is a physical challenge. Mind-body therapies, while taken less seriously by traditional medical communities, can help recovering people block out the symptoms that they are experiencing.

Recommending that a person affected by pain practice mindfulness in the forms of meditation, tai chi, qigong, and other relaxation techniques can help recovering people block out sensory details that they might otherwise perceive to be pain.

The NGUI-MATRIX Non-Invasive Pain Management Technique

The last non-invasive pain management technique that we will be discussing, a rather obvious one for us to bring up, is the NGUI-MATRIX pain management and treatment technique. While it is obvious that we might be a little biased as to the relevance of the NGUI-MATRIX in the world of non-invasive therapies, we have the evidence to support its value.

As a physician or a clinician, it is incredibly important to offer your patients non-invasive pain management treatments that are alternative to what might be prescribed in a traditional setting. In fact, there are even quite a few more therapies than we have even discussed today. That being said, as one person in a practice, it might be hard for you to learn, practice, and offer more than one alternative therapy to your patients. But that’s where the NGUI-MATRIX comes in.

Created by Grandmaster Stanley Ngui, the NGUI-MATRIX is a non-invasive pain management technique that is a compilation of other alternative therapies that are proven to help treat and manage both chronic and acute pain. Some of the more prominent influences that can be found within the NGUI-MATRIX regimen are derived from eastern and western medicine frameworks.

The NGUI-MATRIX operates on the belief that body energy, known as Qi, travels throughout the body along predetermined meridians. When there are abnormalities in the body's energy, pain is experienced. In order to correct the pain that is being experienced, the abnormalities must be corrected — something that the NGUI-MATRIX does with the help of body manipulation and the application of pressure to necessary acupoints. In doing so, the pain can be better managed, and even eliminated.

It Is Not Necessary To Learn It All, Just Build The Proper Network

As a physician or a clinician, you hardly have enough time for your personal life, let alone learning a handful of non-invasive pain management techniques. Because of this, it is important to realize that the key to helping your patients find relief from their pain is not always solved by diversifying your pain treatment portfolio.

It is not so much the solution that you have to learn and apply a great number of alternative therapies at your practice or clinic. Instead, the best thing that you can do to benefit your patients that are affected by pain is to build a professional network of clinicians, physicians, and treatment specialists that you can refer your patients too. In doing so, you can ensure that your patients have access to some of the best non-invasive treatment options in the world.
