The Healthy Living With Chronic Pain (HLWCP) workshop is FREE of costs to participants and facilitated by two trained leaders, one who has been affected by chronic pain. The workshop meets for 2½ hours, once a week, for six weeks and attendance at every session is required. At the end of the six weeks, each participant will receive a $10 gas or Amazon gift card for each session that they attended.
Join the HLWCP workshop to explore ways to better manage your chronic pain. This community-based program is very interactive, where mutual support and success build participants’ confidence in their ability to manage their pain and maintain active and fulfilling lives. You’ll build your “toolbox”, set your own goals and priorities. Week by week, you’ll see what works for you and take steps toward healthier living. This workshop does not replace existing treatments but serves to complement a participant’s medical treatment. This program is not meant for people who have pain medication addiction issues.
This workshop is designed for adults dealing with on-going (chronic) pain and people who provide care for or live with people that deal with chronic pain and is proven to;
• Teach skills to effectively manage pain.
• Improve energy, mental health and quality of life.
• Decrease pain and dependence on others.
• Better participants ability to understand pain, gain confidence and use coping skills.
