Pain Management
Less Hurting, More Healing
¾Ã¾Ã¾Ã¾Ã¾Ã¾Ã¾Ã¾«Æ· Children's pain management specialists do everything they can to give children peace from pain. We understand the physical, emotional and social disruption pain causes.
Our team uses innovative therapies to strengthen body, mind and spirit. We offer inpatient pain management programs where your child stays overnight. We also provide outpatient programs that promote wellness and help children and teens return to everyday participation and functioning at home, at school and at play.
We work to reduce medicines as much as we can. We may use rehabilitation therapies, behavioral health therapies, nutritional counseling and integrative approaches like massage, relaxation and yoga.
We work together as a team to care for your child, and your whole family. We offer counseling and support services so you can help your child feel better inside and out.

We see a wide range of conditions — far too many to list here. The conditions we treat vary depending on the location and providers selected. Don’t see a condition listed? Call us.
