Ease Chronic Pain With Our Guide to Smarter Pain Relief
“Some days, it whispers. Others, it roars,” writes chronic pain sufferer Tracy Middleton in Prevention’s member exclusive guide, Smarter Pain Relief. Fact: one hundred million Americans suffer from chronic pain—pain that lasts for more than three months and sabotages mental, emotional, and social health as much as physical health.
If you suffer from chronic pain from conditions like fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, or others, you are probably all too familiar with how loud pain can be. But you don’t have to let it stop you from getting the most out of your life. Learn a variety of ways to ease your pain by downloading the Prevention Premium member-exclusive guide, Smarter Pain Relief. This guide is packed with expert and first-hand knowledge on the many faces of chronic pain, including the challenges it presents and strategies sufferers can utilize to help ease their pain.
