Another Way through the Pain

Amidst the endless reports and studies that have been coming out in recent years regarding the opioid epidemic and the various problems caused by certain treatments for chronic pain, a recent article in The New York Times delves into an alternative remedy that has helped its author get through his own struggles. By exposing his own personal journey through the chronic pain that has plagued several years of his life, the author is helping to shine a light on another, and oftentimes less prescribed, method of recovery. This method calls on the patient to forgo the usual “props” of braces, assisted seats, and pills and instead focus on conscientious breathing and other forms of meditative thought. While this method would not be an effective form of recovery for all patients struggling with chronic pain, it does at least provide another option for those who have not yet found relief through other means of treatment.
