Pain management workshop offered
ESCANABA — The Chronic Pain Self-Management program is a six-week program that teaches practical skills for living with (or caring for someone with) any type of health condition that causes chronic pain, such as fibromyalgia, back problems, arthritis, lupus. The program focuses on self-care, learning new strategies for managing pain, and gentle exercises to help manage pain. Group meets for two and a half hours once a week. The program will be held in at the North Woods Pace Senior Living in Escanaba on Thursdays, starting June 20, from 1 until 3:30 p.m. There is no cost to attend. The program is sponsored by UPCAP and the North Woods Place. Registration is required, as space is limited. Register by calling 906-786-4701.
