                                 Your Future, Your Choice!
When we fail to maximize our nutrition, physical function, and psychological balance, pain and inflammation can intensify.  Blocking that pain and treating symptoms with medication risks dependence, chronic pain and even permanent loss of function.  A life of pain leaves you feeling limited and trapped.  That's why R&R Wellness Center wants to partner with you to experience freedom from pain that goes beyond your symptoms.

Research shows that there are three primary areas to be addressed simultaneously to relieve your pain, to allow your body to fully heal, and to prevent your pain from coming back.  Your body must be balanced physically, nutritionally, and psychologically to maximize the healing process! 


         This balanced approach is the Healing Matrix!

Acute vs Chronic Pain

Pain plays a pivotal role that alerts you to injury from the environment, or from within. 
  1. The acute inflammatory phase makes up the first 72 hours of an injury.  During this phase, initial swelling and inflammation affects the injured tissues, and tissue repair is limited. 
  2. The Regeneration phase is the longest phase of healing, lasting 6 to 8 weeks.  During this phase the injured tissues repair, rejoin, and link.  When this phase is complete, approximately 90% of damaged tissue is repaired.
  3. The final phase of healing is the remodeling phase.  Here, tissues are repaired and remodeled in the direction of stress and strain, becoming stronger, and their pattern begins to look like that of the original, undamaged tissue.  Regular movement helps properly remodel and realign the new tissue.
For most people, acute pain and inflammation resolves quickly.  Damaged tissue should have undergone full healing and tissue regeneration, and be well into the remodeling phase.  The inflammatory process should be completely resolved and no longer causing swelling or pain seen in the first few weeks of injury.  During this phase it is of utmost importance to get the proper physical care, nutritional support, and if needed, psychological support for optimal healing to occur.

Chronic pain is more complex, however, and unlike acute pain, it can act like a false alarm.  Generally speaking, pain that persists longer than three months is considered chronic, and no tissue repair needs to take place.  This is why the "cause" of chronic pain is so insidious, it can begin without a known beginning point, or from an injury that took place years prior!

Chronic pain begins with the breakdown of any one of your organ systems that leads to a change in how the nervous system interprets their signals to the brain.  That may begin when inflammation fails to resolve, and the tissue healing phases fail to be completed.  Chronic inflammation, then becomes destructive and breaks down the soft tissues and cellular structures of the organ system, which leads to more pain.

Certain factors, such as unhealthy dietary and lifestyle choices, improper movement patterns (or minimal movement in general) or poor mental health, perpetuate inflammation, prolong tissue healing, and fails to shut off the pain signal in the body.  Over time the nervous system begins to misinterpret the signals, making it extremely sensitive, and reactive, to normal stimuli that you would typically not respond to.  Thus, the lifecycle of pain continues.
