If you suffer from chronic pain from an injury, illness, trauma, or disease, the unbearable discomfort can disrupt your entire life. Over 116 million people suffer from various types of chronic pain disorders. Chronic pain can lead to depression, addictions, anxiety, stress, isolation, and even suicide. Finding relief from pain is critical to having the quality of life you deserve.
The Florida Pain Institute treats the whole person comprehensively. We don’t just try and mask your pain; we get to the root cause of it and find ways to treat the source of your pain effectively. The body works synergistically, so even though a patient may have hip pain, it can stem from the spine or even the way they walk. Pain also affects a patient’s mood, and it is essential to get treatment for any psychological effects that a person may be experiencing. We work directly with other providers to offer our patients full thorough, whole-body care.
