College Station Bryan Chiropractor Reveals the Purpose of Pain

Ever wonder "What if the sensation of pain didn't exist?" If you have back pain or headaches or know someone who does, making the pain go away is a major goal. But what is the purpose of pain?

Why are we equipped to feel pain?

Pain of any type is the way your body warns you that something isn't right.

It turns out there are some very important reasons why we're equipped to sense pain. Dorland's Medical Dictionary, used by health professionals around the world, lists over 34 different types of pain!

Pain causes you to pay attention to something that's not working right. It's a warning that a limit of some type has been reached that the body is not equipped to handle or cannot adapt further.

In many ways, pain is a good thing. It's only when we misinterpret the pain or think that by making it go away without tending to its underlying cause that we get into trouble.

Many Bryan College Station area men and women begin chiropractic care because of a painful symptom or obvious health problem. And while we always show our compassion, our primary interest is in the underlying cause of the pain. Numbing the body with drugs to fool the body by hiding the pain may be convenient, but in the long run, expensive.

If you regularly consult a medicine cabinet to deal with pain, I urge you to consult a Bryan College Station chiropractor. The best care starts with expert efforts to help identify the underlying cause of your problem, explain the options and offer safe and natural solutions to your body's cry for help. Contact a chiropractor in the College Station Bryan area who has experience and knowledge of seeing the whole picture.
