Pain Neutralization Technique (PNT) is a non-pharmacological, non-invasive technique for pain neutralization. The technique involves gentle tissue manipulation to “turn off” the nerve-based reflexes that perpetuate trigger points and muscle pain. In this podcast, Dr. Gaston Cornu-Labat discusses how the Pain Neutralization Technique works and provides several examples of how it used in clinical practice. He has recently written a book, called PNT: An Unprecedented Revolution in Pain Management.
People with joint conditions such as arthritis often take over the counter NSAIDs such as ibuprofen to relieve joint pain and inflammation. However, taking oral NSAIDs often can be harmful to your health. The FDA black box warning states that NSAIDs may cause an increased risk of heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure, gastric ulcers, and gastric bleeding. Transdermal creams or gels can be used to deliver NSAIDs through the skin into underlying joints or tissues to relieve pain and inflammation. They offer the advantage of being more effective at relieving pain and with fewer harmful side effects.
