Rethink Chronic Pain

At a time when as many as 1 in 5 adults suffer from chronic pain, a medical doctor and proven pain expert offers an original guide to healing and recovery.

Rethink Chronic Pain identifies the physical and psychological roots of pain and recommends not one single treatment (as the vast majority of advice does) but many: Dr. Gaétan Brouillard incorporates osteopathy, hypnotherapy, acupuncture, nutrition and natural products (including cannabis and CBD) into his tried-and-tested approach. He also draws on years of experience as an emergency room doctor, clinician, and researcher to explain scientific breakthroughs in pain treatment and how to use medicine and surgery when necessary.

Readers will come away with new understandings of the body and mind—and new tools for healing chronic pain at its source.

Dr. Gaétan Brouillard is a bestselling author and highly sought-after chronic pain expert. He has successfully treated countless patients who suffer from chronic pain, including those with complex conditions that have resisted treatment for years. After starting his career as an emergency physician, Dr. Brouillard worked as a clinical instructor for thirty-five years alongside his medical practice. He practices preventive and functional medicine and works acupuncture, naturopathy, osteopathy, and hypnotherapy into his clinical approach.
