9/1/2025Understanding Pain: How Physical Therapy and Wellness Can Help

September is Pain Awareness Month, a time dedicated to increasing public understanding of pain and the importance of proper treatment. At Cypress Physical Therapy, in partnership with Evergreen Wellness, we know how much chronic and acute pain can impact your everyday life—from limiting mobility to affecting sleep, work, and even emotional well-being.

The good news? Pain doesn’t have to define you. With the right care plan, recovery and relief are possible.

What is Pain Awareness Month?

Pain Awareness Month was established to highlight the challenges people living with pain face daily and to encourage solutions that go beyond simply “toughing it out.” It’s about giving individuals the tools, education, and treatment they need to regain control of their lives.

The Role of Physical Therapy in Pain Management

Physical therapy is one of the most effective, non-invasive approaches to managing pain. At Cypress Physical Therapy, our team focuses on identifying the root cause of your pain rather than just masking symptoms. Through:

  • Targeted exercise programs that build strength and mobility
  • Manual therapy techniques to restore proper movement
  • Education and prevention strategies tailored to your lifestyle

…we help you reduce pain while improving your body’s overall function.

How Evergreen Wellness Complements Your Recovery
