MAY 22ND
Mel Pohl, MD, FASAM
Book Title: A Day Without Pain

Chronic Pain: It’s All In Your Head: When we think about pain we often wonder whether it’s “real’ or not. We have a tendency to believe that pain based on emotions is less “valid” than physical pain. This discussion will explore the fact that all pain is real, based on a neurophysiological phenomena in specific parts of the brain. Treatment implications will be described as part of “Pain Recovery”.

He is the Vice President of Medical Affairs and Medical Director of Las Vegas Recovery, a private, freestanding chemical dependency and pain treatment fac­­­ility, and is licensed by the State of Nevada and accredited by the Joint Commission (JCAHO).
