The focus of Las Vegas Recovery Center's Chronic Pain Rehabilitation Program is to reduce pain and increase function thus improving the quality of life - all without opioid pain medication. This is a four-week inpatient functional restoration program, which begins after medically managed withdrawal is completed.

Program includes:

Functional Evaluation, Psychosocial History, Physical Therapy (8 sessions), Interferential Device: nerve and muscle stimulation, Biofeedback, Chiropractic (primary assessment followed by visits 3 times per week), Pilates, Acupuncture, Yoga, Reiki, Massage Therapy, Exercise and stretching groups, and Chi Kung (click here to find out more about Enhanced Recovery).

The milieu provides a community environment where clients have had similar experiences and expectations and have improved over the course of their stay at Las Vegas Recovery Center. This enables a new client to compare and contrast his or her experience and to positively project a future without medications and less pain.

Individuals respond to rewards, and it is our clinical policy, through the use of well-utilized cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, to help the client reframe his or her experience of pain and suffering. Clients are rewarded for increased function by each and every staff member in the center - very little attention is paid directly to the pain complaints.

The treatment program is based on the workbook Pain Recovery: How to Find Balance and Reduce Suffering from Chronic Pain, written by members of our treatment staff. Through a series of exercises, clients learn to achieve physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual balance. Relationships and positive actions grow from this state of balance with resulting decrease of suffering, less pain, improved coping with life stressors, and improved function all without the use of reward-enhancing chemicals.  You can also click here to learn about the weekly Pain in Recovery Support Group held every Monday from 7-8 pm at The Rooms in Las Vegas.
