You may have thought that prescription pain killers are the answer to….

Treating chronic pain.  Unfortunately, research is showing that is not true.

Ugh!  Now what?  

The "standard of care" is changing and the push is to go with alternative therapies.  Chronic pain has been actively researched for the last 20 years.  We know that chronic opioid use does not work for managing chronic pain.  Opioids only cover up symptoms, they do not treat or cure the problem.  Opioid use is dangerous and disrupts your sleep cycle making your pain worse.

In this video clip, I talk about current therapies and side effects.  Talking to your doctor about the pros and cons of taking any of these medications is important.  I also talk about alternative therapies that may benefit you.
