Still in pain, even after trying everything?
You're not broken, and you're not alone. Living with chronic pain can feel endless and exhausting, especially when nothing seems to help. Mastering Chronic Pain offers hope and a new path forward. In this clear and compassionate guide, orthopedic spine surgeon Dr. Matthew Bennett, MD, and pain specialist Dr. Sahar Swidan, PharmD, introduce an approach grounded in neuroscience and functional medicine. Instead of masking pain, they show how to work with your body's biological systems to promote real healing.
This book isn't about "toughing it out" or chasing the next pill-it's about understanding what's really happening in your body and learning how to support your recovery. Readers will discover why pain can continue long after an injury has healed; how to retrain the brain and reset the nervous system; the hidden role of hormones, inflammation, and immunity; non-medication tools that actually support long-term healing; and a step-by-step guide to building a personalized Resilience Code. Whether you're a patient, a caregiver, or simply ready to try something new, Mastering Chronic Pain offers clear, science-based guidance and decades of experience helping patients become victors over chronic pain. You don't have to wait for the pain to stop to start living again-your healing can begin today.
