A speciality centre dedicated to the management of pain was inaugurated in Bangalore. The launch ceremony of the RELIV Center for Chronic Pain Management was chaired by Dr BS Ajai Kumar, Founder Chairman & CEO, HCG Group of Hospitals; playback singer BR Chaya; Dr Madhu Yelameli, Founder Director of Reliv Pain Center and Owner of Nashville Pain Center in the US; and Dr Vishwanath Siddalingaiah, Medical Director, Reliv Pain Center.
The RELIV Center for Chronic Pain Management, also known as the RELIV Pain Center, is reportedly equipped with all medical equipment needed to deal with chronic pain, including back pain, neck pain, joint pain,cancer pain, headaches, neuropathy, and other unique pain conditions such as reflex sympathetic dystrophy. The facility is managed by a team of highly experienced and qualified physicians, all dedicated to the mission of nurturing the niche healthcare discipline of pain management and bringing world-class pain treatment to the country.
Said Dr Ajai Kumar, “There are many diseases like cancer in which patients require a great amount of care to not only fight for their lives but also to manage constant pain. In fact, pain management is an essential part of their recuperation. Unfortunately, pain is something that we neglect to manage, and it soon becomes an inseparable part of our life. India is lagging behind in not only how pain is perceived but also in how it is treated. It is therefore good to see Indian doctors specially trained in pain management coming together through the RELIV Pain Center to enable patients to benefit from the specialised field of pain management and contributes to the Indian healthcare industry.”
Said Dr Yelameli, “India has a very high prevalence of chronic pain. People continue to suffer from debilitating pain for years without realising that effective technologies now exist beyond physical therapy and simple creams and ointments that can give them significant relief. The RELIV Pain Center now offers the latest treatment facilities for effective and safe management of all types of chronic and intractable pain in any part of the body.” Added Dr Yelameli, “Patients who have tried traditional methods like physical therapy and basic pain medications or have undergone spine or joint surgeries and continue to have pain, can benefit through this specialised center. Most patients suffering from pain can leave the RELIV Pain Center with relief within hours. All the procedures and surgeries done for chronic pain are same day procedures and do not need hospitalisation.”
“During the past few months of operation, we have helped a large number of pain patients who had previously given up all hope of leading a normal life, continuing with their jobs or taking care of their families,” informed Dr Siddalingaiah.
