Action Day Against Pain – Support for Chronic Pain Patients: RHÖN-KLINIKUM Campus Bad Neustadt Offers Multimodal Pain Therapy
According to the German Pain Society (DGSS), millions of people in Germany suffer from chronic pain, commonly affecting areas such as the head, back, joints, nerves, and pain caused by tumors.
The DGSS is dedicated to raising awareness about chronic pain, promoting research, improving education and training, and enhancing patient care. The annual Action Day Against Pain, held on the first Tuesday in June, aims to provide pain patients and their families with information and advice on diagnosis and treatment options.
An Underestimated Problem
Pain is often underestimated, and if left untreated, it can quickly become chronic, severely impacting daily life, well-being, and overall quality of life. However, appropriate therapy can significantly improve the quality of life for those affected.
Comprehensive Care at RHÖN-KLINIKUM Campus Bad Neustadt
The RHÖN-KLINIKUM Campus Bad Neustadt offers multimodal pain therapy, involving a team of trained pain specialists, physiotherapists, psychotherapists, and occupational therapists. Their goal is to provide relief to patients with chronic pain through a combination of drug therapy and alternative methods such as acupuncture, hypnosis, physical measures, and even leech therapy.
Additionally, patients are treated with the most modern pain management methods immediately after painful surgeries to prevent the pain from becoming chronic by significantly reducing it.
Improving Quality of Life
With the right treatment, the quality of life for chronic pain patients can be greatly enhanced, enabling them to manage their pain effectively and enjoy a better standard of living.
