While pain medication, such as opioids, can be helpful, these treatments can be addictive if taken long-term. Additionally, pain medications are only known to provide temporary relief for back pain. Exercises, stretches, physical therapy, and spinal adjustments are all needed to see lasting results for regular muscle aches and pain. Roach Family Wellness can offer an alternative solution to opioid-based pain management. Our chiropractic office can naturally treat back, neck, hip, and knee pain without surgery, injections, or prescriptions. We use proven, mechanical methods to stretch the spine and joints. This practice can reduce spinal compression and pressure, effectively alleviating pain.

Opioid-Free Pain Management
Drug-free treatment, unlike opioid use, can restore mobility, flexibility, and normal body function to an individual. Because of this, our chiropractic center utilizes digital X-rays, in-office gyms, and nutritional counseling sessions with chiropractor Dr. Erik Roach to successfully address possible causes of chronic pain. Overall, our treatment plans emphasize the importance of living a healthy, balanced lifestyle when managing body aches and pain.
Heat & Cold Therapy
Hot and cold therapy can help relieve body inflammation. Our office team is trained to perform cryotherapy for patients experiencing pain. Cryotherapy works by carefully applying cold compresses and ice packs. Likewise, thermotherapy is also offered at our Altamonte Springs center. This treatment uses heat to speed up recovery and promote healing. Hot and cold therapy is revolutionary in that it combines the practices of cryotherapy and thermotherapy. The end result is increased blood flow, which is necessary to treat injuries. Hot and cold therapy might be most beneficial to patients with exercise injuries, swollen joints, or rheumatoid arthritis. Call our office to see if it could help you manage your pain!
Supplements
Our chiropractic practice has partnered with Metagenics to provide nutritional supplements to all of our patients. When taken as recommended, these supplements will encourage your body to develop an improved immune system. At Roach Family Wellness, we believe no one should suffer from a reduced quality of life. Our in-office nutrition counseling aims to fix negative symptoms and adverse health. Dr. Erik Roach is currently enrolled at Palmer College. He is continuing to pursue his education on holistic health by pursuing a post-doctorate degree in nutrition, so you can trust him to create a nutritional plan that is based on modern science, research, and proven practices. Call today for a personalized consultation!
Spinal Decompression Therapy
Spinal decompression therapy is a great choice for those with herniated or degenerated discs. The DRX spinal decompression table in our chiropractic office, when used on a regular basis, can help reduce pain. Dr. Erik Roach used this method to treat his own inflammation non-surgically! Call today to ask about spinal decompression therapy.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy, sometimes referred to as sound therapy, is used by our office staff to penetrate through soft tissue and speed up the body’s natural healing process. There are two different types of ultrasound therapy: mechanical and thermal. These techniques use vibrations and heat to break down painful scar tissue and improve flexibility.
MLS Laser Therapy
MLS laser therapy is an FDA-approved method for quickly treating swelling and pain, without the use of opioids or prescription drugs. This therapy relies on the repeated application of pulsing laser emissions to target areas of pain accurately. Overall, this advanced technology has provided our patients with verifiable, consistent results. Our laser therapy is highly effective and safe. With each deep-tissue laser session, you will feel your symptoms improving gradually. For a therapy treatment with little to no side effects, contact our chiropractic care facility!
