PAINGUIDE™ — THE RECOVERY PROGRAM

PainGuide™ is a 16-week evidence-based pain recovery program for adults living with chronic pain. It includes 8 weeks of live group telehealth sessions plus 8 weeks of individualized async education modules — all with clinical monitoring from Day 1. Your acuity level determines the support you receive, not the content and not the price. 

Every participant receives: your Pain Complexity Screening and Pain Profile (free), 8 weekly live group telehealth sessions (60 minutes each), 8 weekly async education modules (Weeks 9-16), clinical monitoring from Day 1 — daily check-ins with clinical review, targeted assessment at Week 1, Week 8, and reassessment after Week 16, your updated Pain Profile, and a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) after week 8 for your healthcare provider. HSA/FSA eligible.  

From the day you enroll, you complete a brief daily check-in (about 2 minutes) — pain level, flare status, triggers, mood, sleep. Your nurse reviews your data every week, flags concerns, tracks patterns, and reinforces what you're learning. This means someone is watching your recovery between every session. This is clinical monitoring, and it's what makes PainGuide™ a clinical program. 

Your Pain Profile is a clinical document built from your screening data AND your monitoring data. It contains your 8-domain scores, flare patterns, belief change over time, RN clinical notes, and documented recovery trajectory. When you see your next provider — PT, therapist, PCP, or pain specialist — they don't start from zero. They start with your data. You don't have to re-explain your story. The Pain Profile tells it. 

$497. One price. All acuity levels. Your acuity determines the support you receive — not your bill. A patient who needs Collaborative Recovery care gets more check-ins, more coordination, and more clinical infrastructure. The price stays the same because your complexity is not your fault. HSA/FSA eligible. Superbill provided upon request. 

Your PCS™ screening determines your acuity level — the level of nursing care you need right now:

Focused Recovery: Your pain has specific contributing factors. We focus on those. Standard monitoring, targeted intervention.

Comprehensive Recovery: Your pain has several contributing factors. We address all of them. Enhanced monitoring, broader clinical scope.

Collaborative Recovery: Your pain needs a team. We coordinate your care across providers. Weekly monitoring, interdisciplinary coordination.

Groups are limited to 6-8 participants per cohort. Sessions are 1 hour per week via secure telehealth. Live group cohorts are matched by acuity level — everyone in your group is at a similar place in their recovery. Nobody is too far ahead or too far behind. That's intentional. Async modules (Weeks 9-16) are delivered individually — no matching needed. 

After the 8 live group sessions, you receive 8 weekly async education modules delivered individually through the monitoring channel you already use. These cover deeper topics — early life experience and pain, emotional drivers, intergenerational beliefs, pain reframing, provider communication, nutrition, movement, and your full Recovery Map. The learning doesn't stop. It gets more personal. 

Education and monitoring from Day 1 — always both. Nobody gets better from entering data points into an app, and nobody recovers from education alone with no one watching between sessions. We educate AND monitor from Day 1. The first 16 weeks build the data. The data builds your individualized Pain Recovery Plan. Then continued education and monitoring drive the plan forward — until recovery or stabilization. That's not a program that ends. That's a recovery pathway. 

Other things no other program provides: acuity-matched groups so you're with people at a similar place in their recovery, a Pain Profile that serves as a clinical handoff document for every future provider, and measured outcomes showing domain-level change — not just "do you feel better?" but which domains improved and which didn't, with data. 

Please notify your nurse at least 24 hours in advance. Session summaries are available. If you miss more than 2 consecutive sessions without communication, your nurse will reach out to discuss whether continuing in the current cohort or joining a future cohort is the better option for recovery. 

No. PainGuide™ is a nursing-led pain recovery education and monitoring program. It is not psychotherapy, counseling, or medical treatment. It teaches pain neuroscience across 11 evidence-based research frameworks within RN scope of practice. If your Pain Profile indicates a need for mental health support, we will recommend appropriate referrals. 

If your Pain Profile shows Collaborative Recovery acuity, your program includes additional care coordination, referral facilitation, and clinical infrastructure. In some cases, your nurse may recommend individual stabilization support before group entry, or co-management with a mental health professional alongside the group program.
