March 8, 2023 – MORRISTOWN, NJ – Fern Health, a leader in virtual chronic pain management, will showcase its digital chronic pain solution, Fern, for the first time at the 39th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM). Attendees are encouraged to visit Fern Health at table #4 in the exhibit hall to discuss how Fern can help them grow their pain practice.
Born out of a clinical partnership with leading pain physicians at Massachusetts General Hospital, Fern combines evidence-based practices with the personal touch of a credentialed health coach in order to address the national pain crisis facing the U.S. that includes the millions of Americans living with chronic pain conditions such as musculoskeletal issues, chronic headaches, and fibromyalgia.
Fern’s ability to impact its members is rooted in the use of a biopsychosocial approach, which helps users of the program address the root causes of pain rather than just the symptoms. This approach is proven to improve pain-related clinical and functional outcomes, but access to this approach has been limited within the U.S.
Fern Health is on a mission to change that. Through Fern’s multimodal program, members engage with educational content and activities that help them understand the physical, behavioral, and social facets of pain. The program also helps build skills across five modifiable lifestyle behaviors connected to pain – daily movement, sleep, emotional health, nutrition, and therapeutic exercise.
If you are attending AAPM 2023 in Fort Lauderdale, stop by table #4 in the exhibit all to learn more about Fern for your pain practice.
