Living with chronic pain can be exhausting and isolating. And women are especially likely to experience it.

New research suggests the immune system and hormonal differences may play a role in why pain sometimes lasts longer for women. But chronic pain isn’t just physical. The nervous system, stress, emotions, and daily habits all influence how pain is experienced.

That’s why approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are so helpful. CBT can help break the cycle of pain, stress, and fear while improving sleep, mood, and daily functioning.

We’ll lose the weight.
Eat better.
Exercise more.
