Pain is a normal part of life and a good thing: if you step on a nail or touch a burning stove, you want to know about it! However, sometimes pain can persist long after the tissues have healed. When persistent pain prevents you from doing the things you need and want to do, it can spiral into progressive loss of function and quality of life. Matthew Janssen, our Therapeutic Pain Specialist, has extensive training in and knowledge of pain neuroscience. Through education, he can help you better understand your pain and work with you to develop a plan to get you back to living your life.
