Empowering (1/8) – 8-Part Series

Dr. Renata Issy and Sarah Jamieson

This interactive and didactic 8-part series empowers you to learn more about chronic pain and the best ways to manage it. Our highly trained facilitators and physicians will discuss gold-standard self-management tools and strategies, and connect you with resources both inside and outside changepain to help you resolve or confidently self-manage your pain.

This series is an essential part of your treatment plan at changepain and is recommended and suitable for all patients, especially for those who are just starting their journey with us.

No prerequisites required. Sessions are recommended to be taken in order. You are welcome to attend any session as often as you’d like to better integrate the concepts into your life and expand your knowledge.

Pain is in the brain, and most pain patients need more than traditional medical treatments to manage (or preferably resolve!) their pain.

• Session 1: 6 Pillars of Health and Science of Pain
• Session 2: Stress, Relaxation and Sleep
• Session 3: Safety and Danger Signals and Intro to Microbiome
• Session 4: Well-being and Mindfulness
• Session 5: Pacing, Energy and Stamina
• Session 6: Key Psychological & Social Factors
• Session 7: Self-compassion & Resilience
• Session 8: Health Management and Navigating services
