FYI:   What is Chronic Pain?

Everyone suffers from acute pain when injured or ill, but acute pain goes away quickly.

Chronic pain is defined by experts as pain that has not gone away or recurs frequently even after six months have passed.   Traditional treatment methods often fail to bring relief.

Chronic pain disables more people than cancer or heart disease.

It costs the U.S. economy more than $90 billion per year in medical costs, disability payments, and productivity.  Yet it has received little attention from medical researchers until recently and is one of the most under funded major health problems in the United States.

Chronic pain brings a burden of depression, anxiety, frustration, fatigue, isolation, and lowered self-esteem.Pain makes it hard to work, hard to play, hard to get support from others, and hard to live a happy life.

Chronic pain shatters productive lives.
