There are multiple ways to heal from chronic pain even if you aren’t able to be treated by a physician.

First, see if there is a mind-body medicine doctor near you or if one of the online options is accessible.

PRT Practitioner Directory

SIRPA Directory (Primarily Europe-Based)

Please note: There are many practitioners who will see patients anywhere virtually.


If there’s no one near you and you’d like to try guiding your own care with a book, we recommend these options:

Unlearn Your Pain, fourth edition
By Howard Schubiner, MD
 
 

The book used by the patients in This Might Hurt.

Chronic Pain: Your Key to Recovery
By Oldfield MCSP, Georgie

There are ALSO a few apps that can guide you through mind-body medicine.
