Live well,
despite chronic pain

Changing the way we think about and manage pain

Have you considered attending a pain rehabilitation program?

4/22/2020

 
Pain rehabilitation goes beyond medicine and medical interventions – and crosses different disciplines.  It doesn’t just focus on removing the pain.  It focuses on the patient and how they can play a role in their own pain management – improving function and quality of life. 
 
It’s a proven approach – benefiting patients while reducing costs and reliance on the medical system. 
 
Having gone through the 3-week outpatient Mayo Pain Rehabilitation Center, at the recommendation of both my family doctor and a general surgeon, I can personally attest to the value of a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach to pain rehabilitation.
 
Do I still have pain?  Of course, I do.  But I’ve learned to live well, despite the pain.
 
Ready about my experience at Mayo.
