Pain therapy

Pain therapy is concerned with the reduction of pain and is focussed primarily on the relief of chronic or acute pain. Acute pain involves an important defensive mechanism of the body that signals wounds and impending lesions. Chronic pain is in most cases a sign of one or more malfunctions of the human body.
