Dr. Tom Ingegno, DACM, Featured on WJZ's "Where's Marty" Discussing Natural Sciatica Treatments
/Dr. Tom Ingegno, DACM, recently appeared on WJZ Baltimore's popular "Where's Marty" segment with beloved host Marty Bass. The segment highlighted Charm City Integrative Health's super effective and innovative approach to treating sciatica pain through natural, integrative methods.
Bringing Natural Pain Relief to the Spotlight
During the television appearance, Dr. Ingegno had the opportunity to showcase how our clinic addresses one of the most common and debilitating conditions affecting millions of Americans: sciatica. This condition, characterized by pain radiating along the sciatic nerve from the lower back through the hips and down each leg, can significantly impact daily life and mobility.
Our Integrative Approach to Sciatica Treatment
At Charm City Integrative Health, we believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. Our comprehensive approach to sciatica treatment includes:
Acupuncture Therapy: As a licensed acupuncturist with a doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, Dr. Ingegno utilizes traditional Chinese medicine techniques that have been refined over thousands of years. Acupuncture can help reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and promote the body's natural healing processes.
Cupping Therapy: Dr. Ingegno, author of "The Cupping Book: Unlocking the Secrets of Ancient Healing," incorporates this ancient practice to help relieve muscle tension and improve blood flow to affected areas.
Therapeutic Massage: Our skilled massage therapists work to release muscle tension and improve flexibility, which can be crucial for long-term sciatica relief.
Nutritional and Lifestyle Coaching: We address underlying factors that may contribute to inflammation and pain, helping patients make sustainable changes for lasting health improvements.
Why Natural Treatments Matter
What sets our clinic apart is our commitment to providing effective alternatives to conventional pain management approaches. Many patients come to us seeking relief without relying solely on medications or considering invasive procedures. Our natural treatments offer several advantages:
Minimal to no side effects
Focus on addressing root causes, not just symptoms
Personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique needs
Integration with conventional medical care when appropriate
Patient Success Stories
The effectiveness of our approach is reflected in our patients' experiences. As one patient shared: "Tom has been great in helping me get sciatica under control, relieving tension in my iliotibial band, and reducing stress." These testimonials underscore our commitment to helping Baltimore residents find lasting relief from chronic pain conditions.
