Research
Research shows that a biopsychosocial approach to treating musculoskeletal conditions delivers better results. PeerWell’s evidence-based programs leverage this proven model of whole person care.
Reduce MSK pain with a whole person approach
Physical Therapy
Targeted exercises significantly reduces pain and improves physical function.
Nutrition
Protein, fat, and sugar are associated with increased pain intensity and lower pain threshold.
Mental Health
Stress reduction techniques and cognitive behavioral therapy lowers levels of pain.
1 in 2 Americans suffer from a musculoskeletal condition resulting in $213 Billion annual spend in treatment and lost wages.1
