Are you all in USA as doesn't sound like a UK site. We have a pain clinic here in Kent which is really good and offers all sorts of support, meds management, coping strategies, psychological therapy etc. We do not ,however have hydrotherapy, which those in other areas of UK have and FMAUK suggests as being helpful. wish we did as pools are far too cold to enter and make muscle pain and spasms worse.
Good luck, give it a try, what have you got to lose?

Hello Jean,
You're right, this is a USA sight, but there are lots from other countries here. Like me! I'm from UK. Sounds great where you are and giving you ideas about how to manage pain, using a whole body approach is good. Don't think all areas, even in UK have this. I did attend a course for chronic pain, which was also really good. As for the pool therapy, there are some private pools around which are warm enough, our local hospital has one too. I am in Hampshire, by the way. Nice to talk to you.
Take care, Anne
