It is estimated that 1 in 5 people suffer chronic pain.  It’s complex and the cause and treatment options which suit one person may not be as adequate for another.  Treatment options often require reviews to medications, changes to treatment recommendations and emotional resilience falling short at times due to the sea-sawing effect to ones’ ability to maintain healthy emotional reserves when the chronic pain remains.  

As a person in chronic pain there are some real concerns to address such as their primary chronic pain site, mobility and mental distress as well as financial hardship.  These issues present consistently for a person with chronic pain and their family as a decrease in their capacity to earn, ability to maintain social connections and their needs as a caregiver becomes compromised. 

What we do know is that there is not one single treatment that alleviates all chronic pain.  It takes good communication, support and the ability to advocate for yourself or your partner.  

It often requires the combination of proactive strategies about how your mental and emotional health may be maintained and health care professionals focused on providing you with positive outcomes and improved quality of life.
