the story For more than a decade, as a physician and acupuncturist, I have helped people suffering with ongoing, debilitating back, neck, and joint pain. The best outcomes occur when we treat not only the symptom of pain but the cause of pain. I advocate for treating the whole person and looking at the root cause of pain and inflammation. Each person has a unique history that deserves to be considered in developing a customized path forward. My book is designed to educate people on how to function better - with less pain, less medications, and a better quality of life. I am on a mission to give people the tools to tame painful inflammation and live life fully. the details Dr. Sharma is dual board-certified in physical medicine & rehabilitation and pain management.
