WELLNESS CARE If you have chronic pain, chances are you are medication dependent and have tried many treatments with no real lasting effects. It is quite possible that other health care professionals have told you that you have to learn to live with your problem. Our goal is to help you return to reduce your pain so you may resume an active lifestyle, an ESSENTIAL component to your recovery. Scientific studies suggest that a "fix it" approach does not work for chronic pain. Our approach to chronic pain is analogous to heart disease, obesity or diabetes. We help you learn how to control and cope with so you can be independent of passive care.
