Pain is the body’s way of telling us that something is wrong. It might be due to an injury, exposure to an irritant, wear-and-tear, or a chronic health issue.

However, if we have prolonged or repeated exposure to sources of pain, such as joint degradation in arthritis, hormonal imbalances causing menstrual pain, or stress causing migraines, the pain-response cycle changes. We develop long standing, chronic inflammation. Chronic pain, profoundly impacts our quality of life. It may reduce mobility, lessen our independence, and limit our daily activities.
