A ground-breaking mind-body protocol for chronic pain addresses the epidemic affecting 50 million Americans who suffer from persistent pain, such as back pain and headaches, often with no effective treatment. Psychotherapist Alan Gordon, who experienced chronic pain during grad school, faced numerous medical consultations without relief. Frustrated by traditional pain management approaches, he created Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), a method designed to eliminate chronic pain by addressing its psychological roots. Gordon founded the Pain Psychology Center in Los Angeles to share this innovative treatment with others. PRT is based on neuroscience, revealing that chronic pain often originates from misfiring pain circuits in the brain rather than the body. This system employs psychological techniques to rewire the brain and disrupt the chronic pain cycle. A recent large randomized controlled study from the University of Colorado at Boulder demonstrated remarkable results, with most participants becoming pain-free or nearly pain-free by the study's conclusion, and these improvements were sustained over time. This work presents PRT to readers, merging accessible scientific insights with a practical, step-by-step plan to empower individuals to heal their own chronic pain.

Chronic pain affects fifty million Americans, manifesting as back pain, headaches, or other persistent issues that resist treatment. Many sufferers are told there is no cure. Alan Gordon, a psychotherapist and founder of the Pain Psychology Center, experienced chronic pain during grad school, which disrupted his life. After consulting numerous doctors and receiving various diagnoses without relief, he created Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), a mind-body approach that not only alleviated his own pain but has also transformed the lives of thousands of patients. PRT is grounded in neuroscience, revealing that chronic pain, often perceived as originating from the body, is frequently caused by misfiring pain circuits in the brain. This therapeutic system employs psychological techniques to rewire the brain, breaking the cycle of chronic pain. A recent randomized controlled study by the University of Colorado-Boulder highlighted PRT's effectiveness, showing that most participants ended the study pain-free or nearly pain-free, with lasting results. This work introduces PRT to a broader audience, blending accessible science with a practical, step-by-step plan to empower individuals to heal their chronic pain.
