Central Sensitization
Central sensitization means the nervous system has become extra sensitive—almost like the body’s “alarm system” is turned up too high.
This doesn’t mean your pain or symptoms aren’t real or that there isn’t a physical cause. It simply shows that your nervous system is playing a bigger role in how those symptoms are experienced.
By addressing both the local source and calming the nervous system itself, we can often achieve better—and longer-lasting—relief.
