When you are in pain, you want relief. At the the Bone & Joint Center, you can find the hope and help you need to deal with pain whether it is acute or chronic. We offer an innovative and comprehensive approach to the treatment of both acute and chronic pain.
Chronic pain is oftentimes complex in its causes, and affects all parts of the body. Chronic pain involves the tissues, bodily systems, and the mind. Persistent pain will evoke strong emotional responses such as anger, frustration, fear and hopelessness, and can oftentimes depress a person’s mood and motivation.
Our multimodal approach to pain management encompasses an effective integrated treatment plan which fosters self-awareness and teaches appropriate and effective self-care. In time, complex issues are oftentimes resolved, pain is reduced, and the patient moves toward peak physical and psychological functioning.
Patients experiencing chronic pain receive a comprehensive medical exam from the Bone & Joint Center's expert pain specialists. Once the causes are fully understood, the patient receives medical intervention and is guided into behavioral, lifestyle, and emotional changes that minimize pain.
