Alternative Treatments Ben Baker

Everyone has pain. Pain can be physical, mental, emotional or any combination. How we deal with that pain varies tremendously. As medical science and patients now understand the true dangers of opioids, many people are looking at alternative ways to treat pain. This book takes a look at the history of pain management, opioids throughout history and how they work and alternative treatments to addictive medicines. The final chapter looks at experimental and promising pain treatments. The series Opioid Education examines various aspects of opioid use and treatment in the United States and the rest of the world. The purpose of this series is to provide young readers with a greater understanding of the ongoing opioid crisis.
