Pain—whether acute or chronic—is more than just a symptom. For over 50 million Americans living with chronic pain, it can feel like an invisible force hijacking daily life. At Patients Medical in NYC, we don’t just treat pain. We uncover the why.
Our integrative medicine model blends conventional care, functional diagnostics, and holistic therapies to help you reclaim your quality of life—without masking symptoms with endless prescriptions.
Chronic pain is defined as pain lasting longer than 12 weeks. It can originate from injury, illness, or appear without a clear cause. It often evolves into a complex condition involving the brain, nervous system, immune system, and emotional well-being.
Types of Chronic Pain Syndromes:
Understanding what contributes to chronic pain is the first step toward meaningful recovery. Our functional and integrative evaluations consider these key contributors:
Scar tissue, inflammation, and nervous system damage can create a long-term pain loop.
Muscle tension, spinal misalignment, or foot/knee asymmetries may lead to chronic strain and pain.
Chronic stress dysregulates cortisol and increases pain sensitivity. PTSD and unresolved trauma can contribute to somatic pain.
Inflammatory cytokines often underlie conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and interstitial cystitis.
Heavy metals, mold, or chemical toxins may affect the nervous system, triggering pain syndromes.
Impaired gut health can lead to systemic inflammation and trigger autoimmune pain responses.
When your cellular energy factories don’t work properly, muscles and nerves become more prone to fatigue and pain.
Low levels of magnesium, B12, CoQ10, and omega-3s often correlate with heightened pain sensitivity.
At Patients Medical, we dig deeper with advanced lab panels and functional assessments:
Our treatment plans are personalized based on your unique biology and the root cause of your pain.
We design nutrient-rich diets that reduce inflammation and support gut health, such as:
Nutrient infusions to support nerve and muscle function, energy production, and detoxification, including:
Clinically backed supplements to modulate pain and inflammation, such as:
We incorporate acupuncture, trigger point therapy, chiropractic adjustments, and myofascial release as needed.
Chronic pain lives in the nervous system—so we address it with:
We test and optimize levels of cortisol, thyroid hormones, estrogen, and testosterone—essential for long-term healing and resilience.
Tom, 48, struggled with widespread muscle pain, sleep issues, and brain fog. He had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia years ago and prescribed antidepressants—but nothing worked.
After a full workup at Patients Medical, we discovered he had:
Our customized plan included:
After 90 days, Tom’s pain levels dropped by 70%, and he returned to full-time work without medication.
Previous injuries, inflammation, stress, gut imbalances, and nutrient deficiencies are all major contributors.
Yes. Chronic stress or trauma can dysregulate your nervous system and create real, persistent pain.
Exposure to heavy metals, mold, and chemicals can damage nerves, disrupt hormones, and cause inflammation.
Not always—but inflammation is a key driver in many chronic pain syndromes like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and migraines.
Yes. Leaky gut and dysbiosis can create systemic inflammation and autoimmune reactions linked to pain.
Many of our patients come to us after conventional options fail. Our approach uncovers the deeper causes that others may miss.
Each case is different. Some feel relief in weeks, while others need several months for full improvement.
Yes, we prioritize natural therapies—but also work alongside any medications you’re currently on.
No. Even without a formal diagnosis, we can begin functional testing and symptom mapping.
We are an out-of-network provider. However, we provide superbills, and many labs may be partially reimbursable.
Patients Medical specializes in gently helping the patient identify the root cause of their medical issues and then assist them to recover from their problems to help them move forward to good health.
