MacDonald-Cadieux held a steady pace and before she knew it, she was leading the race. With 15 laps remaining, the gas cut out. After pitting for fuel, Shep took over the driving with what the team thought was a full tank of gas. Five laps later, he showed up back in the pits and out of gas. Within five laps, he radioed,he was out of gas again. On the last lap, another, car passed the Snap- on Pontiac placing them is Seventh place.

I still have a lot of pain In my back and my Insurance company company has told me that it would be helpful II I could get some pain management. Can you tell me what you do with this? Pain management is one of the newest buzz words in the rehab Industry. Pain management can encompass all kinds of things from postural education, (teaching you how to have good posture while you are doing your daily activities),. to education lor stress management, management, to how to manage your pain at home. Basically what pain management means is lor the patient to have some control over their pain when it arises. You are in a situation where you have boon in a car accident 2 years ago and you still have some residual or chronic pain. You may have this pain lor life, and at this stage you may bo looking lor a way to control this pain with an acupuncture-based program. You have already done some pain management with your rohab program because the exorcises that you have boon taught are a component of pain management, Our pain management program Is acupuncluro-basod. The objective ol the program Is to teach patients how to soil-treat to control their pain. The low back Is whore patients most often report pain. But what actually perpetuates this pain are muscle spasms, or trigger points, In areas other than the low back. First wo Idontily those trigger points. The common locations lor those trigger points are the ankle, the abdomen, the armpit os well os the jaw and sometimes the nock and the hand llsoll, Those are the common common locations ol some trigger points. Treating those points control control the low back pain, Wo select the three most Involved trigger points. They are very tender on examination. When treated, the patient's back range-of-motion improves. In the first session of our pain management program we identify the three most involved trigger points. We then teach the patient how to sell-treat these trigger points. There are many treatment tools you can use. One that is common common is a tennis ball. II you use a tennis ball and tap around the trigger trigger point the vibration will help to release the muscle spasm and increase blood How to the area. Another v/ay to do this is to use an Acuhoalth Tens which is an electrical electrical hand held acupuncture unit. Each treatment session involves involves checking for range-of-motion and painful movements, treatment ol the trigger points, teaching the patient proper posture and how to treat the trigger points themselves, then re-evaluation to see how treating treating the trigger points helps to resolve the patient's pain. Often it Is the way a patient sits at their desk and things they do day-to-day at work or at play that contribute to their continuing pain and those Issues are also brought up and discussed, discussed, It Is very much a homo treatment plan because it is expected that the patients will sell- treat on a daily basis, monitor their progress and report back to the therapist. The aim ol Iho program Is to got the patient Independent. Alter the first six wooks ol twlco per week, tho patients are soon lor a further six weeks once a week In order to mako sure that they can carry through with their program.
