@debduh11, I'm not really sure but I think a pain rehabilitation center focuses on using non drug therapy. Here's discussion on the Mayo Clinic Pain Rehabilitation Center where you can meet @rwinney and others to see what they have shared:

Hi @debduh11 - John is correct, pain rehabilitation focuses on using non drug therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy, occupational therapy and physical therapy. Lifestyle changes are often coached as well. Rehabilitation is more of the whole person approach, helping both mind and body, and may include reducing or omitting unnecessary medications. Here is an overview of the Mayo Clinic's Pain Rehab Center in case you are curious to learn more:

Have you dabbled with any rehabilitation therapies or lifestyle changes to assist with pain management?
