Got Pain? Our Pain Rehabilitation Program Can Help

Chronic pain accounts for thousands of doctor visits each year and is one of the leading causes of worker absenteeism and poor quality of life. An individual who has been in pain for a long time is likely to suffer from a number of symptoms in addition to pain including decreased activity levels, depression, anxiety, frustration, poor sleep, deconditioning and changes in their social and occupational lives. Our Pain Rehabilitation Program treats patients as a whole, targeting the many factors that impact pain, suffering and overall outcome. Learn more
