At Recovia, we are redefining how chronic pain is treated. Our focus is on treating the entire person, not just a symptom. Recovia's non-interventional, multi-disciplinary approach is the new "gold standard" for treating chronic pain. Why? because pain can be influenced beyond just the physical component. These outside influences on pain include past experiences, current stressors, thought processes, and mental states. Whatever kind of chronic pain you are dealing with, Recovia's whole-person approach helps treat the physical and emotional elements. By utilizing a three-fold perspective (behavioral health, physical therapy, and medical), we can help clients "reset" and retrain the pain system.
MENTAL HEALTH
Chronic pain is not only what's going on in your body; what's going on in your mind also plays a factor. Past physical traumas, current levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and how you think about or predict pain all play a role in the expression of pain in your body. The longer you live in a cycle of decreased movement, stress, negative thinking, heightened emotions, and negative behaviors that work against you, the more your central nervous system stays active in "fight or flight" mode. This creates hypersensitivity to both emotional and physical pain. Our behavioral health team is here to help you get out of this cycle and function much more like yourself.
Integrated care may include all or some of the following:
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
- Central nervous system education
- Mindfulness-based stress reduction
- Art therapy
- General self-care and functional skill building
- Live application of behavioral health skills
- Pain education, positive psychology, and other general behavioral health topics
PHYSICAL THERAPY: Central Nervous System (CNS) Based
When experiencing chronic pain, you may feel like you are unable to move and exercise because either the pain is too great or you will further injure yourself if you do so. Recovia's physical therapy helps clients overcome that fear by re-learning safety in movement while also addressing the underlying causes of chronic pain, as opposed to just masking the pain with medications. Learn a better, more lasting way to manage pain and gain increased awareness of your body through nutrition and exercise!
