In 2021, about 20.9% of U.S. Adults (51.6 million persons) experienced chronic pain, and 6.9% (17.1 million persons) experienced high-impact chronic pain (i.e., chronic pain that results in a substantial restriction to daily activities). The most common types of chronic pain are back pain and headache. There are many causes of chronic pain. It may have started from an injury or illness from which you have long since recovered, but the pain remained. Or there may be ongoing illness such as arthritis or cancer. The market for chronic pain in 2023 is enormous - 73.14 billion dollars.

Treating chronic pain is challenging because of the complex nature of pain and the unique nature of each sufferer. This is why the term “Pain Management” is commonly used rather than “Pain Treatment” because pain is seldom “resolved” but “managed.”

If the cause of chronic pain for a particular class of pain is known and a procedure exists to get rid of the cause, then one can say, with confidence, that the chronic pain can be resolved successfully. For chronic pain caused by muscle/nerve injury, the cause of the pain is well-known and documented. The cause is the “formation of trigger points in the muscles.”  In this case, the pain can be resolved successfully when most trigger points are eliminated from muscles.

At Bergen Pain and Rehab, we use the term “treatment” rather than “management” because we know how to “resolve” chronic pain. Anna Lee MD, the owner of Bergen Pain and Rehab, has developed a procedure that can eliminate trigger points from injured muscles. The procedure is called Automated Intra-Muscular Stimulation – A-IMS in short. With this FDA-approved procedure, Dr. Anna Lee has treated thousands of chronic pain patients successfully in the past 27 years.

Here are some of the comments made by her former patients:

“In one session, Dr. Lee was able to get rid of my back pain and completely changed my life.”;

“After the 2nd treatment, I was able to eliminate all pain medications such as Ultram ER and Vicodin.”;

“After receiving the A-IMS treatment, I have been free of sciatic pain for several years.”;

“The A-IMS treatment allowed me to sleep through the night without sleeping pills.”;

“I was amazed with the pain relief. The pain was literally gone. I went swimming again and was doing things I haven’t done in years.”;

“It is astounding what A-IMS procedure has done to eliminate the pain I have endured for the past ten months.”;

“The numbness is gone, I have no pain, and most importantly, I can sleep without the constant tingling sensation that used to keep me up at night. The treatments have given my life back”;
