Welcome Clinicians

You take care of your chronic pain community in a multitude of ways.

As we all know, pain education can be complex and time consuming for clinicians and chronic pain warriors alike.

Perhaps as a clinician you...

are feeling frustrated with a lack of progress in your chronic pain patients overall wellbeing?
are feeling like there is so much more to explain about pain but there is never enough time?
are wishing your patients could become more of their own advocate for improvement through informed decision making?
are feeling as though your patients are overwhelmed with all the information that is 'out there' when it comes to their pain care in conjunction with the medication and they could use a little cohesion?
are feeling as if a community of like minded people with similar experience would do your patients a world of good?
want to offer your patients a sense of continuity and strategy when managing their pain in conjunction with their current treatment plan, so they can enjoy a more vibrant life?

Hello,

I am passionate about breaking the overwhelm of pain education into little bite sized pieces to make the science a little more relevant, applicable, manageble for our community.

My name is Deana and I am the head pain coach and chief curator at Pain 2 Possibilities and The Change Pain Academy, an online membership community for those living in chronic pain.

I am 53 years old, mother of 3 awesome teenagers and I have been working as a Certified Wellness Coach and Movement educator for over 27 years. I have been collaborating with persistant pain warriors for 13 years now and I have to say...chronic pain champions are amazing! Sadly, it is a community that receives little support beyond our clinicians and manual therapists, so it is my mission to start filling in some of those gaps and helping our community to become their own health advocates.

I studied Physical Health and Education at the University of Toronto and Fitness and Lifestyle Management at George Brown College. I have also completed a pain educators course through the talented Dr. Rachel Zoffness PhD in California. I am a certified Wellness Coach through Wellcoaches & the American College of Sports Medicine and a certified Pilates Instructor with the focus on remedial exercise.

I also consider myself to be a student to our chronic pain warriors. We aim to be mutually beneficial in our symbiotic relationship of teacher and student. I firmly believe that our CP champions have a whole lot to teach us.

When the roof is leaky and there are a lot of holes to fill to slow the leak, which one do you start with?
