Pain, whether physical, mental, or both can be one of the most excruciating experiences that occur in life. Studies have shown that chronic pain negatively affects a persons' mood, reduces the amount of sleep they get, weakens the ability to remember and concentrate, and hurts personal and professional relationships. At times, it can feel like an uphill battle that only gets steeper as time goes.
