Interdisciplinary Pain Management

Interdisciplinary Pain Management is a collaborative approach to treat chronic pain by involving a team of healthcare professionals from different specialties, such as doctors, physical therapists, psychologists, and pharmacists. Together, they develop a personalized plan that addresses physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of pain. This team-based strategy aims to improve function, reduce pain, and enhance quality of life by combining various therapies like medication, physical activity, counseling, and lifestyle modifications. It recognizes that managing pain effectively often requires a comprehensive approach rather than a single treatment.
