How Pain Patients Can Benefit from our I-Engage Academy Resources

By Hannah Friedman | January 31, 2025

For patients, managing chronic pain can feel overwhelming, especially between medical appointments. That’s where the I-Engage Academy comes in. This free online resource page provides practical tools to help patients enhance their pain management skills.

At the heart of I-Engage Academy are eLearning courses covering essential topics like:

  • Managing Pain with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Learn how to reframe thoughts and behaviors that influence pain perception.
  • Nutrition for Chronic Pain: Discover how dietary choices can impact inflammation and pain levels.
  • Sleep and Chronic Pain: Understand the relationship between sleep and pain, and strategies for improving both.
  • Supporting Your Mental Health: Explore ways to maintain emotional well-being while living with chronic pain.

These courses are designed to complement existing treatment plans, giving patients actionable insights to apply in their daily lives.

Beyond the courses, I-Engage Academy offers follow-along videos, including guided meditations, yoga routines, and stretching exercises. These activities can be integrated into daily routines, helping patients stay active, reduce tension, and manage stress—key factors in pain relief.

The chronic pain blog offers diverse, evidence-based articles on topics like pain research, mental health, nutrition, and advocacy. Patients can use this as a go-to resource for staying informed about pain-related subjects.

For healthcare providers, this resource can be recommended to patients to enhance engagement in their care. It’s a way for patients to take ownership of their health, develop new coping strategies, and feel more supported outside of appointments. 

By making the I-Engage Academy part of your pain management approach, you empower yourself or your patients with tools to manage pain holistically, alongside professional care. While they don’t replace medical treatment, these resources offer invaluable support in building long-term, sustainable skills for living well with pain.
