For most people, pain is an occasional visitor that stays a short time. But for some people pain takes up residence in the body and mind.  According to a 2021 report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in 5 adults in the United States experience chronic pain on most days or every day. Knowing where to turn for relief can be a challenge.
