My Expert Service
|
|
I teach chronic pain patients/clients the necessary skills/tools to manage and control their pain by teaching them relaxation/meditation, diaphragmatic breathing, time management skills, problem-solving skills, assertiveness skills, nutrition, importance of aerobic exercise, goal writing, keeping pain diaries, etc. I am also educated and trained in basic occupational therapy skills such as shoulder rehabilitation, elbow pain, wrist pain, ergonomic/workstation evaluations and worksite evaluations. Some of the diagnoses that I have worked with include multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, stroke, traumatic brain injuries, upper extremity injuries/trauma, etc.
