Chronic Pain

Chronic pain is not something you have to accept. But we'll be honest with you — it's also not something that resolves in two visits. If you've been living with pain for months or years, here's what we believe and how we work.

What Chronic Pain Actually Is

Pain that persists beyond the normal healing timeframe (roughly 3 months) isn't just a prolonged version of acute pain. The nervous system has undergone real changes — central sensitization, altered pain thresholds, and movement avoidance patterns that have reshaped how you load your body. Treating chronic pain like acute pain doesn't work. It requires addressing the tissue, the movement, and the nervous system simultaneously.

What We Can Offer

At Twin Tiers, Dr. Britt approaches chronic pain with the same movement-based assessment framework she uses for everything else — but with additional attention to the cumulative picture. How long has this been going on? What has and hasn't helped? What movement patterns has your body built up around the pain? What's the realistic trajectory?

We combine chiropractic adjustments to restore joint motion, FAKTR soft-tissue work to address fascial restrictions that have built up over years, cupping for deeply held tension, and massage therapy for the nervous system regulation that chronic pain patients often desperately need.

Honesty About Expectations

We will not tell you we can cure your chronic pain. In many cases we can significantly reduce it, improve your function, and reduce your dependence on medication. In some cases we can resolve it entirely. What we will always give you is an honest assessment of what's possible, a clear plan, and care that's actually aimed at the source rather than short-term symptom management.

If you've been everywhere and nothing has helped, that doesn't mean nothing can help. It means you haven't found the right combination yet. We'd like the chance to find it with you.
