The Pain Stops Here – The Advanced Pain Care Blog

Every person’s pain is unique, and every person’s success with the spinal stimulator is different.  When chronic pain patients share their stories and journey with spinal stimulation, it often reminds us that others are going through similar experiences.  It's a reminder to connect with those that need support and continue to offer solutions that can give you the pain relief you deserve.  Saundra H. shares her inspiring story about her long struggle with chronic pain, and how the decision to choose spinal cord stimulation with Advanced Pain Care changed her life.  12 Years Of Chronic Back Pain With No Relief Saundra was an active

By Dr. Clayton Adams An estimated 50 million people live with chronic pain, and if you're one, then you may need a pain management clinic to help you get back to an active, healthy life.  If you’re looking for a clinic, then you’ve made it clear that you deserve relief.  We know that choice and journey is not always easy, especially if you’ve been a victim of pain stigmas.  And if you’ve already gone to a pain management clinic and didn’t feel heard or felt that the doctors didn’t believe you, then we get why you may feel nervous going to a new clinic

By Dr. JM Paterno We understand how frustrating it feels to be trapped by chronic back pain, unable to live the life you want to live.  But we’re here to say that even though the pain is inevitable, your suffering is optional, and we’re here to help you find the relief you need to get back to living a normal and even exciting life.  Though there are many options to help you treat chronic back pain, spinal stimulators are more frequently becoming the treatment of choice.  Why?
