Non-Drug Strategies May Help Reduce Chronic Pain for Coloradans

If you suffer from chronic pain but are understandably wary about using opioids or other strong pharmaceuticals, you might be interested to know that non-drug treatments have been emerging to manage pain for many people. Two of these treatments are Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), which uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help you “unlearn” pain; and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation Devices, or TENS devices, which use low-voltage electrical currents delivered through skin patches to relieve pain. For more details on how these treatments work and guidance on whether they could be of use to you, see our AgeWise Colorado article at Non-Drug Strategies May Help Reduce Chronic Pain for Coloradans – AgeWise Colorado
