The East End Multidisciplinary Pain Management Program (EMP) focusses on the functional activation of patients with chronic noncancer pain (CNCP). Click on the menu below and find out more about our programs. The EMP is a functional activation program. It is designed to help patients with chronic pain get the most out of life. All staff have many years of experience in treating patients with chronic pain using cognitive behavioural therapy and a number of other modalities. The EMP is a true multidisciplinary pain program. It is now the only such program in Hamilton that treats patients without third party funding even though it receives no government funding. The EMP also treats patients whose pain has arisen from trauma related to a motor vehicle accident or work related injury. No patient has been turned away. The EMP accepts referrals from physicians, lawyers, psychologists, occupational therapists, rehabilitation therapists, vocational therapists and other allied health professionals.
