CHRONIC PAIN

Chronic head pain
Chronic Pain is pain that goes on (or recurs—comes and goes, comes and goes) for at least 3 to 6 months1. New research in the past ten years has shown that pain is 100% produced by your brain as a response to a perceived threat2. If something is happening in your body that your nerves and brain determine is “dangerous”, then you are going to experience pain. With chronic pain, a nerve or multiple nerves have become “sensitive” or too active and react very quickly to sensory information that may or may not be causing tissue harm.
Chronic Pain Management with Physical Therapy

At Pain Science Physical Therapy we utilize a unique approach to treat chronic pain

  • Therapeutic Neuroscience Education to understand the science behind the pain
  • Graded Motor Imagery to address long-standing nerve-pain programming
  • More traditional physical therapy treatments of manual therapy or hands-on techniques and stretching or strengthening.
