CHRONIC PAIN AND FITNESS
If you suffer from chronic pain you have probably found it nearly impossible to workout without aggravating your symptoms. Even worse, you have likely given up hope, deciding exercise only makes your symptoms worse and you are better off not exercising at all. The reality is regular exercise has countless benefits in the treatment of chronic pain, and when supervised by a specialist, you will be able to experience those benefits without increasing your pain.
