The UGFHT chronic pain program is a team-based program to help you understand and manage your pain in ways that work for you. The program is typically about three months in duration, with multiple visits to our team, home learning, and home exercise/movement plans for you to work on during that time.

OUR PAIN TEAM WILL:

• Get to know you and your pain story.
• Assess your pain and identify concerns that are contributing to your pain.
• Provide education, tools and strategies to help you manage your pain.
• Connect you with other professionals and resources as needed.

IS THIS SERVICE RIGHT FOR ME?

YES IF:

• You are a person living with chronic pain.
• You are seeking help and support to understand your pain and find strategies that work for you.

HOW TO BOOK AN APPOINTMENT:
