FAMILY CARE
If patients need hormone therapy replacement, Zuwa has the treatment available on site. NEW PAIN TREATMENT For people experiencing pain that isn’t responding to therapy or other modes of pain management, there may be an answer. Zuwa offers perineural injection therapy, a series of injections of an alkaline dextrose solution just under the skin that offers relief to superficial nerves, which in turn communicate with deeper nerves and muscles. Dextrose is a naturally occurring glucose that feeds and hydrates the injured nerves, providing an environment for nerves to heal themselves. Brian French said he has benefited greatly from the therapy at Zuwa. He broke his foot while coaching a soccer match, sustaining serious nerve damage. “I’ve had this foot injury for the last five years,” French said. “I’ve had multiple operations and been to doctor after doctor and haven’t been able to get any relief.” French, an active young man of 42, said the injury had slowed him down to the point where he’d gained nearly 60 pounds. After getting the treatment in August, he’s been able to return to a physically active lifestyle and lose nearly 20 pounds.
“It’s made a real difference in my life,” he said. The treatment isn’t covered by his insurance, but French said he gladly pays for it out of pocket. Kristan Boardman, another Zuwa patient, had similar results. A pinched nerve in her lower back was so painful she found it difficult to stand or walk. She tried adjustments by a chiropractor and massages and took Tylenol in an attempt to alleviate the pain. “Nothing was really working,” she said Boardman said she underwent the treatment of about 20 injections and despite some tenderness at the injection site, the results were impressive. “It wasn’t 100%, but I felt relief immediately,” she said. “At first, I would say that it cut my pain in half, and a week later, I felt no pain. It was awesome.” In the second week of September, the practice put up a sign to let people know it was open for business. In the six weeks before the sign went up, however, the practice had amassed 140 patients through word of mouth, Hanners said. “Once we launched, it’s been nonstop,” Oviawe said. “The community has been supportive. The people who come, seem to tell their friends, their neighbors and spouses about the services we have to offer.”
