The True Health Chronic Pain Program
We don't manage chronic pain. We end it.
You've tried everything: medications, procedures, specialists. Maybe you've even been told to just live with it. Chronic pain is treatable when you address all of its causes together: physical, biochemical, and nervous system. This program does exactly that.
Starts with a free phone consultation · In-person or virtual
CONVENTIONAL CARE IS FAILING CHRONIC PAIN PATIENTS. HERE'S THE PROOF.
10%

80%
average pain reduction achieved by True Health program patients within 6 months
THE PROBLEM WITH STANDARD CARE
If your doctor is treating your pain, they are missing the causes.
The current standard of chronic pain care is not designed to end your pain. It is designed to treat your symptoms and lower your pain enough to hopefully function. Medications, injections, and surgeries often produce unwanted side effects and offer only temporary relief because they address the symptom, not the system driving it.
HOW CONVENTIONAL CARE APPROACHES CHRONIC PAIN
-
Treats the diagnosis, not the person
-
Manages pain levels without resolving the cause
-
Addresses one system at a time (usually just the physical)
-
Relies on medications, injections, or surgery as first-line options
-
Limited by what insurance will authorize
HOW THE TRUE HEALTH CHRONIC PAIN PROGRAM APPROACHES IT
✓
✓
✓
✓
✓
Treats the person, not the diagnosis. Every plan is individualized
Identifies and corrects the root causes. Not just pain levels
Addresses physical, biochemical, and nervous system contributors simultaneously
Uses therapies that work with your body's biology and natural healing capacity
Care is not constrained by what insurance authorizes
OUR APPROACH
Why chronic pain is complex — and why addressing all three systems is the only way through
Chronic pain is not just a structural problem. Over time, physical injury, biochemical dysfunction, and nervous system sensitization reinforce each other. Treating only one while the others go unaddressed is why most people cycle back into pain.
1
The Physical System
Joint restrictions, muscle dysfunction, nerve irritation, and poor movement patterns that keep mechanical stress on pain-generating structures.
ADDRESSED WITH
Chiropractic · Soft tissue therapy · Dry needling · Physical rehab · Cold laser · Orthotics
2
The Biochemical System
Systemic inflammation, hormonal imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, metabolic dysfunction, and poor sleep that prevent tissues from healing and keep the nervous system sensitized.
ADDRESSED WITH
Advanced lab testing · Naturopathic medicine · Targeted supplementation · Nutritional counseling · Hydrotherapy · IR sauna
3
The Nervous System
Central sensitization, protective muscle guarding, and pain signaling that has been "learned" over time makes the body overreact to normal stimuli and maintain pain even when the original injury has healed.
ADDRESSED WITH
Mind-body counseling · Pain reprocessing therapy · Graded movement exposure · Education-based care
"Finding all the contributing factors of your pain and treating the whole person is the only way to get out, and stay out, of chronic pain."
– Dr. Jason Winkelmann ND, DC
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Every program is all-inclusive and individualized
No two treatment plans look the same. Your program is built around your specific lab results, history, and contributing factors. But every program draws from the same comprehensive toolkit. Here's what you can expect to see in your plan.
Initial Comprehensive Consultation
A thorough assessment of your physical presentation, health history, lifestyle, nutrition, sleep, and stress. The foundation everything else is built on.
Advanced Laboratory Testing
Specialty labs that go beyond standard bloodwork. We assess inflammation markers, hormonal function, gut health, nutrient status, metabolic function, and more. Used to identify the biochemical drivers of your pain.
Precision spinal and joint adjustments, mobilizations, and an individualized rehab program to target the mechanical and structural contributors to your pain.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Various manual therapies to loosen tight muscles, release trigger points, and correct muscle imbalances contributing to your pain and dysfunction.
Functional medicine that investigates the systemic factors that conventional care routinely overlooks: chronic inflammation, hormonal imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, gut dysfunction, metabolic dysregulation, and poor sleep.
Nutrition & Lifestyle Counseling
Individualized guidance on diet, sleep, movement patterns, and daily habits that directly affect inflammation, nervous system regulation, and healing capacity.
Red light therapy that stimulates cellular energy production, which accelerates tissue healing, reducing inflammation, and relieves pain at the cellular level.
Alternating hot/cold water application that balances the autonomic nervous system, stimulates circulation, supports immune function, and activates the body's natural healing response.
Therapeutic heat supporting detoxification, circulation, pain relief, and cellular recovery. Program patients can receive lifetime access to weekly sauna sessions after completing the program.
Physician-Grade Supplements
Targeted supplementation protocols based on your lab results and clinical presentation — not generic over-the-counter products. Used to accelerate healing times and support nutritional changes. Program patients receive a lifetime discount on all supplements.
Mind-Body Counseling
Addressing the emotional, psychological, and nervous system components of chronic pain. Pain is processed in the brain, and long-term pain changes how the brain processes signals.
Custom Orthotics
Custom foot orthotics to help correct the entire kinetic chain from the ground up.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Realistic results and a plan for staying out of pain for good
We can't promise a specific outcome because every person is different. What we can tell you is what our patients consistently experience, and why education is built into the program from day one.
THE 80/20 PRINCIPLE
Our patients' healing tends to follow the same 80/20 pattern seen throughout nature: roughly 80% of improvement happens in about 20% of the time.
For most patients, that means approximately 80% reduction in pain within the 6-month program, with continued improvement ongoing. Every patient who has completed the full 6-month program no longer classifies themselves as a chronic pain sufferer.
WHAT ABOUT THE REMAINING 20%?
Healing takes time. Especially after years of pain. A central part of why this program works is education. You learn everything about your specific pattern of chronic pain, and how to keep treating yourself so you can live the rest of your life free of it. We don't want you reliant on us. That's not how medicine should work.
100%

PROGRAM OPTIONS
Four program tiers — choose the depth that fits your situation
Every option is all-inclusive and individualized. Pricing is transparent. No hidden fees, no per-visit billing inside the program.
Quick note: Chronic pain care ranges from $0 with insurance (10% success rate) to $54,000 in some intensive programs.

ON INSURANCE
Insurance companies dictate what your doctor can and cannot do, which labs you can order, which treatments are authorized, how many visits are covered. They know what they'll pay for, and they don't deviate from it regardless of what you need.
The average chronic pain patient spends $7,726/year on insurance-covered treatments with a 10% success rate. You can't afford not to try something different.
WHO THIS IS FOR
We treat people, not diagnoses — all complex chronic conditions considered
This program is for people whose pain has not responded to conventional care, has been present for months or years, or involves multiple overlapping systems. Here are some of the conditions we've treated.

YOUR CHRONIC PAIN SPECIALIST
Dr. Jason Winkelmann ND, DC
Founder, True Health Centers · Naturopathic Doctor & Chiropractor
Dr. Winkelmann's approach to chronic pain was born from his own experience of being failed by conventional medicine. He went from doctor to doctor with nothing to show for it until complementary and alternative medicine changed everything. That experience is why he built a practice that treats people holistically: physical, biochemical, and mental/emotional. It's the only way to get out of chronic pain and stay out.
"If your doctor is treating your pain, they are missing the causes."
