Addressing Acute Pain with Scenic City Neurotherapy: A Faster Path to Recovery
By Charles Miller, CRNA, CMO, Founder/Owner of Scenic City Neurotherapy
Pain is an inevitable part of life, especially for adults who push their bodies to stay fit, perform at work, or meet family demands. While some discomfort is normal, acute pain, whether from an injury, surgery, or inflammation, shouldn’t derail your life for weeks. Unfortunately, many people accept pain as unavoidable, relying on temporary fixes like ibuprofen, steroids, or simply waiting it out.
At Scenic City Neurotherapy, we believe you don’t have to endure weeks of pain. Our targeted therapies are designed to accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and help you return to your active lifestyle faster.
The Hidden Cost of Waiting It Out
When acute pain strikes, the instinct for many is to tough it out, assuming time will heal all wounds. But delaying effective treatment comes with hidden costs:
- Lost Productivity – Pain disrupts work, exercise, and daily activities, leading to frustration and setbacks.
- Over-Reliance on Medications – NSAIDs (like ibuprofen) and steroids might offer minimal short-term relief but can cause long-term side effects, including gastrointestinal issues and weakened immunity.
- Muscle Atrophy & Loss of Mobility – Inactivity during recovery can lead to stiffness, weakened muscles, and prolonged rehabilitation.
For example, if you’re an active individual, a physical therapy patient, or a parent or grandparent trying to keep up with little ones, even just a week of downtime can lead to lost progress, added stress, and disruption to your routine. As one patient in her 40s shared:
“At my age, every minute counts. Looking at minutes, weeks, months. I don’t want to lose that time. This is even more important as we get older, for grandparents and their grandchildren.”
The longer the pain persists, the harder it becomes to regain full function. That’s why it’s important to take action early with approaches that actually work.
How Scenic City Neurotherapy Helps You Heal Faster
At Scenic City Neurotherapy, we specialize in cutting-edge IV infusion therapies that target pain and inflammation at the source. Unlike oral medications, which must pass through the digestive system, IV therapy delivers nutrients and anti-inflammatory agents directly into your bloodstream for faster, more effective relief.
Our Approach to Acute Pain Relief
Minimally Stimulated Ketamine Infusion Therapy (MSKIT®)
While MSKIT® is often used for chronic pain, it can also help with acute pain by targeting the nervous system to interrupt pain pathways. This treatment may be considered when other options are not providing relief.
Intravenous (IV) Fluids
For dehydration-related pain or when recovery is needed after injury or surgery, IV fluids can help restore balance, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.
IV Toradol (Ketorolac)
This powerful anti-inflammatory can provide relief from pain caused by inflammation, making it effective for conditions like acute back pain, joint pain, and muscle strain.
Lidocaine Infusion
Lidocaine works by calming overactive nerves and interrupting pain signals. It’s often used in cases of nerve-related acute pain and can offer significant relief.
Who Benefits Most?
- Athletes & Active Adults – Minimize downtime after injuries.
- Post-Surgical Patients – Accelerate recovery without excessive opioids.
- Those with Acute Flare-Ups – Get relief from conditions like tendonitis, muscle strains, or joint pain.
