About Natural Pain Solutions
Natural Pain Solutions specializes in providing Nonsurgical Spinal Decompression as part of an Integrated Care Model at Natural Pain Solutions.
The primary focus of the Natural Pain Solutions is the treatment of severe and chronic neck and lower back and/or arm/ leg pain. Our patients typically have either already had surgery and are still experiencing pain and disability, or they may have been advised that they need to have a surgery, or they simply have not made improvement with traditional methods of care, whether with their family physician or chiropractor, pain specialists or other healthcare provider.
Dr. Grace often works closely with the members of the Natural Pain Solutions healthcare provider team so that patients may benefit from the added value the team can offer.
Licensed & Insured Chiropractor
Dr. Thomas Grace
Thomas is passionate about non operative spinal decompression and restoring function with the least invasive means possible. Dr. Grace believes that many patients with severe pain and decreased function could avoid surgery and epidural injections with a non-invasive spinal decompression program.
Dr. Thomas Grace, Clinic Director
Thomas Grace received a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the University of Western States (UWS)(2015), a BA in Sociology from Gordon College in Wenham, MA (1993) and a BS in Geology from State University of New York and the University of Wyoming (2001).
During his Chiropractic training, Thomas’ love for treating under-served communities led him to clinic rotations with Volunteers of America and a UWS mission trip with Clinica de Mariposa to Costa Rica in 2015, where he treated hundreds of local patients in the San Jose area. Upon his return to the States, he joined Dr. Popovicks at Orofino Wellness Center in Idaho for a final clinic rotation.
Thomas is passionate about non operative spinal decompression and restoring function with the least invasive means possible. Dr. Grace believes that many patients with severe pain and decreased function could avoid surgery and epidural injections with a non-invasive spinal decompression program.
Thomas’ interest in cranial work began twenty years ago by listening to Dr. James Jealous DO lecture on CSF and cranial sacral therapies and has evolved through study and many hours of practice. He completed his certification in SOT (sacral occipital therapy) 2017 and enjoys integrating this work into the treatment of his patients at Natural Pain Solutions.
As a clinician, Dr. Grace has a strong interest in functional evaluation and individualized treatment plans. His treatment approach uses a combination of Diversified Adjusting, Activator technique, IASTM, muscle energy techniques, nutritional and cranial sacral therapies.
Thomas’ health care philosophy was shaped by a childhood of simplicity. He was raised without electricity in a log cabin in upstate New York. As an adult, Thomas travelled to Colorado, where he became enamored with mountaineering and eventually became a rock and mountain climbing guide. Ten years of this work gave Thomas a greater curiosity about the ways that the body works. He has held teaching certifications in both New York and California, which allowed him to bring his love for learning into the classroom. In more recent years, family became Thomas’ primary focus and that has provided him with unprecedented fun and fulfillment with his four kids.
Dr. Grace has many hours of postgraduate education in functional neurology, orthopedics, biomechanics, cranial/sacral therapies, physical therapeutics, clinical nutrition, as well as diagnostic imaging such as MRI and CT scan.
Testimonials
Had my first appointment with Dr. Grace today. He's knowledgable, thorough, and fantastic to work with. Highly recommend.
Not your ordinary chiropractor. Ive been going to chiropractors for 20 years. Most pop your back and send ya down the road. They really don't care to fix your problems. Not Dr. Grace. He's amazing. He has taken his time getting to know my problems and coming up w a solution. He's passionate about his work and it shows. Trust me. Go see him !!! You will not regret it. 10 stars ⭐️
As always, Thomas not only helps with the issue at hand (in my most recent case, surgery recovery), but takes the time to explain the why and how behind his method. Love being taken care of and better informed at the same time!
