Whole-Person Approach

Chronic pain can affect every aspect of a person.

Treatment of chronic pain, then, should address each of these areas to provide relief to the whole person.

Dr. Bunch provides comprehensive pain management, incorporating medications when needed, injections to alleviate pain, gentle stretching and physical therapy, and self-management strategies to reduce stress and improve overall well-being.
