Chronic Pain Self-Management Workshop

Many people suffer with ongoing health conditions that can effect so many areas of their lives. We offer workshops geared to help people live life to the fullest with their ongoing health conditions. This upcoming workshop is FREE and runs, one day a week, for 6 weeks via Zoom.
The information we share is not meant to conflict with your existing programs or treatment. It is designed to help you to think about what else is out there for you. We want you to stay active by continuing to enjoy the things that are important to you. 

In our workshops we discuss:
  • Techniques to deal with problems, such as frustration, fatigue, pain and isolation.
  • Appropriate exercise for maintaining and improving strength, flexibility, and endurance
  • Appropriate use of medications
  • Communicating effectively with family, friends, and health professionals
  • Nutrition
  • Decision making
  • How to evaluate new treatments

The workshop is also available to caregivers to help them better support their loved ones.
