Our Goals

Rebuild

At NCFRP, our first goal is to assist patients in rebuilding the life that has been devastated by chronic pain. Patients will develop coping tools to construct a realistic picture of what their life could be with a focus on mind-body wellness, the foundation of the rebuilding process.

  • Optimize or reduce medication usage
  • Reduce Depression
  • Reduce Anxiety
  • Reduce Stress
  • Utilize effective coping skills and learn to independently manage pain
  • Transition into a more self-directed pain management

Reconnect

People with chronic pain frequently feel disconnected from themselves, their bodies and the environment. At the Northern California Functional Restoration Program, we will utilize treatment techniques that help patients reconnect with themselves, family, work and the community.

  • Improve capability of employment by increasing tolerance to work activities
  • Re-engagement in social, recreational and vocational activities
  • Return to Work guidance and resources
  • Support systems and family participation

Restore

Once the rebuilding and reconnection processes are instituted, restoring patients to a productive and meaningful life with coping tools to confront the daily challenges of living with chronic pain is our goal. Patient will have increased self-reliance, improved coping skills that promote limited use of medications and medical services.

  • Increase ability to perform activities of daily living and work activities
  • Improve overall physical functioning
  • Reduce utilization of Healthcare System
