Video: Olympic Games Gold Medalist Nikki Stone Joins Chronic Pain Experts in Educational Webcasts
Date:7/24/2008

f the aerobic activity with less stress on their joints. Low-impact exercises may include yoga, Pilates, biking, walking and swimming

-- A good goal to reach for is 30 minutes of aerobic activity four to five times per week

As always, patients should first speak with their healthcare professional before starting any type of exercise program.

"Chronic pain is a daily struggle for more than 50 million Americans. It can affect their relationships, daily activities and may limit their ability to enjoy life to the fullest," said B. Eliot Cole, MD, MPA, Executive Director, American Society of Pain Educators. "Through this educational Webcast series, we, along with PRICARA(R), aim to provide individuals living with chronic pain valuable information about coping with pain and points to consider when discussing their pain management plan with their doctor."

Throughout the Webcast series, which is co-sponsored and co-developed by PRICARA(R), Division of Ortho-McNeil-Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the marketer of ULTRAM(R) ER (tramadol HCl) extended release tablets, Olympic Games gold medalist Nikki Stone shares her personal story with persistent chronic pain as it relates to each topic and encourages other chronic pain sufferers to not give up hope. In the first Webcast, Nikki reflects on the time when exercise was the last thing on her mind. At that point, she did not want to get out of bed, let alone exercise. But she knew she had to start somewhere, which included speaking with her doctor and starting an exercise routine slowly: light stretching one day, a walk the next.

The second and third Webcasts focus on the benefits of weight control in chronic pain management and the psychological effects of this condition. These Webcasts, "Is Your Persistent Chronic Pain Weighing You Down?" and "Making Sure Your Relationships Aren't Pained When You're in Chronic Pain" will be online for viewing in 2008 following the launch of the first Webcast.
