You've been through so much trial and error already.  Spent a lot of time, effort and money trying to find what is actually going to change the pain so I understand why this is an important question to ask.  And yes, the program costs money so it likely feels like you are taking a big risk (and our survival brain doesn't like risk). But the question I would ask you is this... what if it does work? I screen participants up front to be sure that all who join are good candidates. I screen for both readiness to do the work and the type of pain you are living with. If however,  you get through the full program (and you can show me that you have put in the work) and it did not work for you then I will refund your money, removing the risk for you.

We are here to change your pain so I will encourage you to show up daily, put in the time and effort (sometimes just minutes per day) to truly have impact. To rewire the brain and to move away from debilitating pain we must practice and take baby steps each and every day. When pain tells us to avoid or to turn away from activities (or lessons or practicing) we need to gently, lovingly head towards those activities to rewire the brain in small doses. But just in case, you will have access to recordings when absolutely necessary.

As a migraine and headache girl (ever since I can remember) I put these skills to practice regularly. As a coach, I have studied human health and movement (Physical Health and Education) at the University of Toronto and Fitness and Lifestyle Management at George Brown college. I have been in the health and wellness field for over 30 years and have learned from the best, Dr Rachel Zoffness, Dr David Butler, Dr Lorimer Moseley and so many others. I am a certified Wellness Coach that specializes in chronic pain and I am a certified in Pain Reprocessing Therapy and In Graded Motor Imagery. I am also a certified Pilates Instructor.

The course runs for 16 weeks but you will have access to the course for one full year. I limit the time only to encourage you to get through this program in a timely manner. I don't want you to have to live with debilitating pain any longer.

I look forward to guiding you through the 16 weeks as you take ownership over your recovery. In order to do this I highly encourage you to show up regularly, engage, participate and practice these new skill sets. In order for us to truly have an impact, in order for us to retrain the brain, we must practice daily...even on the tough days. Some of these tools take only minutes a day to practice (and some of them can be fun...yup, I said fun) but they need to be done regularly, otherwise we fall back into familiar patterns. This course consists of self paced learning, group coaching, and home practice as well.

I have taken the skills that I use for my one on one clients and put them into a program. Beta simply means that this will be our second time through the program in a group setting.  I have reduced the price significantly as we work through all the moving pieces of the program. In return, I will be looking for your feedback (as it will only make the program better) and your testimonials. The price will have to increase next time around.

Pain is very complex and we have made such gains into chronic pain treatment in the last 20 years. Even though we have come so far, there is still so much to learn. I wish I could say that this program will rid you of the pain completely but that is simply not the case. It is my aim to help you to help yourself reduce the amount of pain you feel so that pain becomes just a noise in the background. I will teach you the tools and strategies to help you get back to living a life that is fulfilling with less pain. It is not only a program to change your pain but it is also a huge growth opportunity. You will learn a lot about yourself along the way.

Unfortunately both our current model of treatment (our medical system and the insurance companies and their policies) are woefully behind on the latest research on chronic pain. Until they get up to speed, programs like these are not covered and are the responsibility of the person living with pain. It is my hope that this all changes with the success of this program and of other programs like this one.
