The Practice

Welcome to The People’s Pain Clinic

Hi there! My name is Kathryn Pierce and I am the founder of The People’s Pain Clinic.

The People’s Pain Clinic focuses on sports medicine — designed to address problems involving the muscles, joints, nerves, and connective tissue that commonly cause pain and limit movement.

The kinds of patients I help are athletes with injuries, older people with chronic pain that hasn’t gotten better using other modalities or even other acupuncturists, post surgery recovery, and people with pain or dysfunction that doctors simply don’t know what to do with.

The primary goal of treatment is to identify which structures are not functioning properly, and help restore normal health to these areas using targeted, evidence-informed techniques.

A focused approach to pain and movement problems

Some of the most common complaints I see:

• Neck and shoulder pain
• Nerve entrapments/pain/injury/atophy
• Frozen Shoulder
• Low back and hip pain
• Spinal Disc herniations
• Other acute low back pain
• Gastroparesis
• Knee pain/injury/post op recovery
• Osteo arthritis
• Wrist and forearm repetitive strain and injury
• Elbow strain and injury
• Sciatica and other hip/Leg nerve irritation
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Foot drop
• Muscle weakness/lack of coordination
• Chronic tension and chronic pain
• Meralgia Parasthetica
• Any kind of injury or repetitive strain

Many patients come in after trying massage, chiropractic care, physical therapy, injection therapy, surgery, or other forms of acupuncture and found no relief. Check out the services tab and blog to learn more about how I can help your condition!
