Chronic Pain

Non-Invasive Chronic Pain Care in Plymouth, MN

Medical professionals define chronic pain as pain that lasts longer than three months. Sadly, it stretches into years for many people despite physical therapy, medications, injections, or even surgery. At Bomberg Chiropractic in Plymouth, Minnesota, Dr. Tom Bomberg treats chronic pain differently. Instead of masking symptoms, he identifies and corrects the biomechanical and neurological dysfunctions that keep pain signals active in the body.

Chronic extremity pain (persistent arm, shoulder, hip, knee, or leg pain) often continues because previous treatments didn’t resolve underlying spinal and joint faults. Chiropractic care restores proper motion and nervous system signaling, allowing the body to finally heal.

Living with chronic pain is exhausting, frustrating, and limiting, yet it doesn’t have to be permanent. If you’re ready to move beyond symptom management and address the real cause of your pain, it’s time to schedule a chronic pain evaluation with Dr. Bomberg.

Why Chronic Pain Persists: Central Sensitization + Joint Dysfunction

When pain lasts too long, the nervous system adapts in the wrong direction.

Central sensitization occurs when:

  • Pain signals remain active for months or years
  • The brain becomes hypersensitive to normal input
  • Even minor movement or pressure feels severe

This process doesn’t mean the pain is “in your head.” It means the nervous system has learned a faulty pattern. Uncorrected spinal imbalances and joint fixation keep feeding this loop. Until those inputs change, the pain cycle continues.

Dr. Bomberg’s chiropractic approach helps interrupt this pain signaling at its source, allowing the nervous system to rewire toward normal function.

Solutions When Other Pain Treatments Haven’t Worked

Many patients seeking chronic pain care at Bomberg Chiropractic have already tried:

  • Physical therapy
  • Pain medications or muscle relaxers
  • Steroid or nerve injections
  • Rest or activity modification

These approaches often reduce symptoms temporarily but fail to correct spinal motion loss and joint fixation – the mechanical drivers of ongoing nerve irritation. Targeted chiropractic care often succeeds after other options stall because it restores the missing movement the nervous system needs to calm down.

Why Haven’t PT or Medications Fixed Chronic Arm or Leg Pain?

Physical therapy and medication focus on strengthening muscles, stretching tight tissue, and blocking pain signals. They often don’t correct spinal joint fixation, which continues to irritate nerves feeding the extremities.

With the right corrections, your nervous system can relearn comfort, confidence, and normal movement again.

Dr. Bomberg’s Natural Approach for Fast Chronic Pain Relief

Chronic pain changes how the brain processes sensory information. It can be reversed through proper mechanical input. Again, chronic pain is not permanent; it does require the right approach.

  • Spinal adjustments can typically help normalize pain signaling within 4–6 weeks, thanks to neuroplasticity.
  • Manual palpation identifies fixated joints and protective muscle guarding – issues that often don’t appear on MRI or X-ray.
  • Dr. Bomberg’s extremity-specific techniques, like Thompson Drop adjustments, restore natural joint glide in shoulders, hips, knees, and wrists.
  • With proper documentation, most insurance plans cover 20+ visits for chronic pain care.

Rewiring Chronic Pain Patterns With Chiropractic Care

Unlike pain clinics that chase symptoms, Bomberg Chiropractic corrects the faulty movement patterns driving chronic pain. This process creates a true reset, not a temporary decrease in symptoms.

What Dr. Bomberg Focuses On
  • Restoring spinal motion
  • Reducing nerve irritation
  • Normalizing joint mechanics
  • Re-educating the nervous system
Dr. Bomberg's Approach Addresses
  • Spinal and extremity joint motion
  • Neurological input driving pain
  • Biomechanical imbalances causing overload

Over time, consistent chiropractic care helps the body reduce hypersensitivity, improve movement confidence, regain strength and coordination, and break fear–pain cycles. That’s why chiropractic care often works when other treatments haven’t.

Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Long-Term Pain Patients?

Yes, and in many cases, it’s an ideal solution because there are no drugs, no injections, and no systemic side effects.

Dr. Bomberg uses gentle, low-force techniques, like:

  • The Activator Method for sensitive nervous systems
  • The Thompson Drop Technique for precise joint correction
  • Movement based soft tissue work to reduce guarding

Benefits are cumulative, meaning improvement continues as the nervous system stabilizes!
