About Us
Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience
arising from actual or potential tissue damage.
At the Pain Clinic
of Monterey Bay (PCMB) our goal is to assist patients in maximizing
their pain management strategies by treating both the sensory and emotional
components of pain to improve their overall quality of life.
To achieve this
goal we use a variety of procedural, psychological, and medication interventions
in concert with the treatment strategies provided by the referring physicians. |
