Most classical homeopaths treat pain along with a number of other important symptoms. The great thing about homeopathy is that it gets to the root of the problem. It doesn't just mask or suppress the symptoms with drugs and surgery.
There are a number of homeopathic remedies that are helpful with acute pain situations. One thinks of Arnica, Rhus Tox, Bryonia, Belladonna, Ruta, Bellis Perennis, and a handful of others. These are useful when there is a new injury. But once the injury has settled into the person, it becomes chronic, and that requires a different approach and a customized remedy (constitutional) chosen to match all of your symptoms, those related to pain and others.
I have over 18 years of experience selecting constitutional remedies for all sorts of clients with a variety of different types of pain. In some cases, I have prevented them from needing the opioids. In other cases, I have gotten them off the opioids quickly after surgery or an injury. It is well known that using narcotics causes healing to take longer, and can actually interfere with healing, causing chronic pain. In other, more chronic situations, the patient may be self managing with OTC pain relievers, which causes problems with the liver and kidneys, or they may be taking Opioids. With a well matched constitutional remedy, the client simply begins to notice that he or she needs the medication less and less often.
