There is nothing pretty about chronic pain, actually there is no intrinsic good about chronic pain. We may not be able to do anything about our pain but we can do something about how we suffer. Now this is where we can be courageously creative!

At Bayridge we weave clinically tested, effective strategies into our unique pain management program in order for you to take back your life. Even if it is just a little at a time.

“Few things a doctor does are more important than relieving pain... pain is soul destroying. No patient should have to endure intense pain unnecessarily. The quality of mercy is essential to the practice of medicine; here, of all places, it should not be strained.?br> Marcia Angell

Wouldn’t you like to spend less time in doctors?offices?

Chronic pain takes control of every aspect of one’s life: physical, mental, emotional, relational and spiritual. Many people suffering with chronic pain put their lives on hold waiting for a cure for their pain.

There have been many advances in pain management including pharmacological and surgical advances. Despite these advances, however, there remains no cure for chronic pain. No treatment can eliminate pain for all people, all of the time. On average, treatments reduce pain by 35%, and less than 50% of people treated feel a reduction in their pain (Turk and Winter, 2005).

I am not saying that there may not be a breakthrough in the future that will reduce your pain; I am, instead, encouraging you, right now, to take the control of your life and take the focus away from chronic pain.
