Pain Management

Moving Beyond Medication to Find Lasting Relief

When pain persists for months or even years, it stops being just a symptom and becomes a debilitating condition in itself. Chronic pain can control your life, affecting your ability to work, your sleep, your mood, and your relationships. If you are tired of relying on pain medication that only masks the problem, or being told that "nothing more can be done," we are here to tell you there is a better path forward.

At Apricot Care in Pune, we offer a modern, evidence-based approach to chronic pain management. We understand that chronic pain is complex and involves not just your body, but also your brain and nervous system. Our program goes beyond temporary fixes to address the root causes of persistent pain, empowering you to take back control, reduce your suffering, and return to an active, fulfilling life.

Key Components of Your Pain Management Program

Our integrated program addresses pain from all angles, treating the whole person, not just the site of pain.

  • Pain Neuroscience Education (PNE): Understanding why you hurt.
  • Graded Movement Therapy: Safely reintroducing movement to desensitize your nervous system.
  • Hands-On Manual Therapy: For targeted pain relief and improved mobility.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Strategies (CBT): To break the cycle of pain, stress, and fear.
  • Mindfulness & Stress Reduction: To calm the nervous system and change your relationship with pain.
  • Lifestyle & Sleep Hygiene Coaching: To optimize your body's natural healing processes.
  • Functional Goal Setting: To get you back to the activities you love.
  • Decreased Reliance on Medication: Providing you with effective, non-pharmacological tools.

Understanding Chronic Pain: Why Does It Still Hurt?

Acute pain is like a fire alarm: it's a vital signal that warns your body of actual or potential tissue damage. It's helpful. Chronic pain, however, is like a faulty fire alarm that keeps ringing long after the fire is out.

For many people with chronic pain—a condition that affects nearly 20-30% of the adult population in India—the nervous system has become over-protective or "sensitized." Your brain and nerves are essentially stuck in a state of high alert, sending out pain signals even when there is no new injury.

The goal of modern pain management is not just to treat the original site of injury, but to retrain this sensitized nervous system, calm the faulty alarm, and restore normal function.

Our program is designed for conditions like:

  • Chronic Lower Back & Neck Pain
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Neuropathic (Nerve) Pain
  • Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)
  • Pain associated with Arthritis

The Goal of Our Program: Empowerment Over Pain

Our primary goal is to change your relationship with pain. We aim to decrease its intensity and, more importantly, decrease its control over your life. We empower you with the self-management skills to feel better, move better, and live better, with less reliance on passive treatments like medication.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are you just going to tell me the pain is "all in my head"?

Absolutely not. Your pain is 100% real, and we believe you completely. What modern neuroscience teaches us is that all pain is ultimately produced by the brain and nervous system as a protective mechanism. In chronic pain, this system becomes over-protective. Our job is to help you understand this real, biological process and use that knowledge to retrain the system and reduce the pain you feel.

I've had pain for years and tried everything. How is this different?

Our approach is different because we treat you, the whole person, not just your "sore back" or "painful knee." By combining education (understanding why you hurt), with active therapy (retraining movement and desensitizing your nervous system) and psychological strategies (breaking the pain-fear cycle), we address all the factors that keep the chronic pain alarm ringing.

Will I have to stop taking my pain medication to start this program?

No. You should never stop or change your medication without consulting the prescribing doctor. Our goal is to work alongside your medical care. We aim to provide you with skills and relief to the point where you and your doctor may decide together that reducing your medication is a safe and appropriate option.

This sounds like a lot of work. I'm in too much pain to exercise

We understand this fear completely. This is the biggest barrier for most people with chronic pain. Our "Graded Movement" approach starts incredibly gently. The goal is to find your baseline—a level of movement that is safe and comfortable—and build from there very slowly. You will learn that gentle movement can actually make you feel better, not worse, and this is the first step to breaking the pain cycle.
