Pain management is a broad branch of medical science that utilizes an interdisciplinary approach to easing the patient's suffering and enhancing the quality of life of patients with chronic pain. A common aim of pain management is reducing the use of narcotics or pain killers, relaxing the patients' lifestyle and providing education on stress and pain management. The use of pain management treatments in combination with a holistic approach to disease prevention and therapy is now recognized as an effective treatment approach for moderate to severe pain. Chronic pain can result from injury, disease or injury, or be the result of a disease such as cancer or Parkinson's disease.
