Pain Awareness Month: Finding Natural Relief at Evergreen Naturopathic

Pain is more than just an inconvenience. It can limit movement, disrupt sleep, affect mood, and gradually steal joy from daily life. At Evergreen Naturopathic, pain is understood as the body’s way of asking for attention. When that message is listened to closely, safe and natural ways to support healing often become clear. 

Two therapies offered at Evergreen Naturopathic are biopuncture trigger point therapy and perineural injections. Both approaches can be valuable tools for reducing pain and helping people regain a sense of ease in their daily lives. 

Biopuncture and trigger point therapy 

Muscles that remain in patterns of tension can form what are known as trigger points. These tight, sore spots not only hurt on their own but can also radiate pain into other areas of the body. Biopuncture involves very small injections of natural remedies placed directly into these points. The treatment is designed to calm inflammation, release muscle tension, and encourage the body to restore balance. Many patients report being able to move more freely, feeling lighter, and experiencing less discomfort afterward. This therapy can be particularly helpful for headaches, back or neck pain, shoulder tightness, and injuries from sports or repetitive activity. 

Perineural injections 

Perineural therapy offers a gentler approach by working on the small nerves just beneath the skin. These nerves sometimes remain irritated after injury, repetitive strain, or inflammation. When this irritation continues, they keep sending pain signals even long after the original tissue has healed. Perineural injections use a mild natural sugar solution placed just under the skin along the affected nerve pathways. This calms the nerves and allows them to reset, reducing the “overreactive” pain signals. Conditions such as sciatica, carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, or post-injury nerve pain often respond well to this therapy. 

Neither of these treatments is aimed at simply covering up symptoms. Instead, they are intended to encourage the body’s own repair processes and restore balance. Within the context of naturopathic care, biopuncture and perineural therapy integrate seamlessly alongside nutrition, stress management, movement, and restorative sleep. Together, they form part of a comprehensive plan that supports lasting health and function. 

Living with pain can be exhausting. It can interfere with relationships, limit activities, and drain energy. Pain Awareness Month is a reminder that persistent pain does not have to be accepted as a permanent part of life. Natural and effective options exist to help reduce discomfort, restore vitality, and bring people back to the activities and connections they care about most. Evergreen Naturopathic is here to support that journey toward greater comfort and well-being.
