About the Chronic Pain Lecture Series

This series offers information about the nature of pain and the ways that the body’s systems are affected by pain.
This series provides basic information, so that other components of the Centre’s program may be better understood and incorporated into everyday life.
The Series consists of ten lectures which are repeated on an ongoing basis.
Lectures are open to the public including family members and significant others.
No referral is necessary.
