It guides you through hundreds of exercises designed to break the cycle of pain, like:</p> 900 <ul style="padding-bottom: 8px;"> 901 <li>Easy-to-understand pain science education</li> 902 <li>Guided meditations</li> 903 <li>Expressive writing</li> 904 <li>Visualizations</li> 905 </ul> 906 <p>With Curable, chronic pain sufferers can self-manage their symptoms safely, effectively, and inexpensively.</p> 907 908 <p>The program is based on a "biopsychosocial" approach to chronic pain relief, the same principles and techniques that have shown significant results across clinical <a href="https://www.curablehealth.com/science">studies</a>. These methods are used by leading physicians, specialists, and psychologists at institutions like Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, Northwestern, and NYU - many of whom helped us to build the Curable program.</p> 909 <br> 910 911 <h3 style="font-size: 24px;">How it Works</h3> 912 913 <p>When pain persists, becoming âchronic,â it also becomes more complex. Modern pain research shows that psychological and emotional elements can play a major role. These non-physical components can help the brain âlearnâ to be in pain, re-wiring the bodyâs neural circuitry to perpetuate the sensation of pain.</p> 914 915 <p>With proper therapeutic attention the brain can "unlearn" pain, paving the way to physical pain relief. Research shows that methods like education, writing, meditation, visualization, and cognitive behavioral therapy can successfully help the brain to stop this recurring pain cycle.</p> 916 917 </section> 918 919 920 <style> 921 #TryCurableCallout { 922 background: #fffff; 923 height: 120px; 924 margin: 10px 0px 80px; 925 } 926 927 #CalloutContent { 928 max-width: 620px; 929 margin-left: auto; 930 margin-right: auto; 931 padding-top: 40px; 932 } 933 934 #bfButton { 935 transition: color 0.4s ease 0s; 936 color: #FFFFFF; 937 justify-content: center; 938 background-color: rgba(9, 166, 167, 1); 939 border: solid rgba(9, 166, 167, 1) 1px; 940 cursor: pointer !important; 941 padding: 15px 24px; 942 border-radius: 100px; 943 float: left; 944 margin-right: 20px; 945 display: inline-block; 946 font-size: 18px; 947 } 948 949 #bfButton:hover { 950 color: rgba(9, 166, 167, 1); 951 background: white; 952 border: 1px solid rgba(9, 166, 167, .5); 953 } 954 955 #bfInfo { 956 font-size: 0.95em; 957 line-height: 150%; 958 margin: auto; 959 } 960 961 @media (max-width: 699px) { 962 #TryCurableCallout { 963 height: 180px; 964 } 965 #CalloutContent { 966 padding-left: 20px; 967 padding-right: 20px; 968 text-align: center; 969 } 970 #bfButton { 971 float: none; 972 margin: 0 auto 20px; 973 } 974 } 975 </style> 976 <div id="TryCurableCallout"> 977 <section id="CalloutContent"> 978 <a href="/clara" id="bfButton" class="toLogin">Try Curable Now</a> 979 <div id="bfInfo"> 980 Ready to start your healing journey?
