I work in a chronic pain clinic. The patients are there 40 hours a week for six weeks (which usually stretches out because they have to make up absences). I have the group for 5-6 hours a day. The rest of the time they are doing biofeedback, acupuncture, pilates, yoga, nutrition class, or are in a counseling session. I am always challenged to come up with a variety of activities for them! They are there for a wide range of injuries so I try to find activities that will fit everyone.
In the past I have posted to this group looking for suggestions but didn't get much response.... if anyone cares to make some suggestions and start another thread that would be great!
