Feel free to say hello on the discussion board, and if you're looking for any specific event, please post the request there.
Calgary chronic pain support group provides a way to connect with others, share resources, discuss pain related topics and support one another in a constructive positive environment. We may not be able to change the physical realities of life with chronic pain but we can work on improving our quality of life and enjoy spending time with others who understand what we are going through.
We are exclusively a peer to peer support group and as such our meetings are open only to individuals with chronic pain, their guests, and family or friends of individuals with chronic pain.
People in chronic pain share a common experience that is hard to communicate with others and this aims to provide a supportive and safe space to interact and share anything related to living life with chronic pain.
Health care providers and those offering goods or services are not permitted.
This group may encompass chronic pain from acute injury or long term injuries, including but not limited to back pain, neck pain, nerve pain, joint pain or joint disorders, musculoskeletal pain, central pain syndrome, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome/ME, headaches or migraines, orofacial pain, postoperative pain, sciatica, arthritis, complex regional pain, irritable bowel syndrome pain, pelvic pain, neuropathic pain, long covid pain, or others.
