Even though pain hurts, it is a vital mechanism with the intention of alerting you to a problem requiring immediate attention.

When pain is reduced, prevention and maintenance become the focus. This may include exercise/strengthening, counselling, dietary monitoring, supplements, and/or maintenance treatments. Through our Pain Management Program, you could not only experience a reduction in pain, but also end up with a healthier lifestyle through improved nutrition, elimination or reduction of pharmaceutical medications, and a strong foundation for mental/emotional balance.
