Hi @goldleaf,
Here is more information about Mayo Clinic's Pain Rehabilitation Center https://www.mayoclinic.org/departments-centers/pain-rehabilitation-center/overview
It is offered at all 3 Mayo Clinic campuses in Arizona, Florida and Minnesota. It is not an online program. People with chronic pain generally have extensive medical histories. A referral from a health care professional is required.
You can find out more about insurance and Mayo Clinic in these pages: https://www.mayoclinic.org/patient-visitor-guide/billing-insurance/insurance
Goldleaf: Have you attended a pain rehab clinic before?
@healingone @iriahmak can you share a strategy that has helped you to manage symptoms?

@goldleaf - From the Clinic I learned about deep breathing and distraction as ways to help get your mind off your pain and trying to get it to focus on other things. The idea is to rewire our brains to help it stop creating/deepening the pain path. Light exercises and working our way up slowly is helpful, meditating is suggested, my doc told me about an app and device called Muse-it helps you get your mind in a calmer state with real time data. When I meditate I focus on the Lord so that’s what helps me the most.
