Expert Profile: Barry Hughes, Ph.D.

Expertise: I can answer questions related to chronic pain management involving issues such as associated depression, sexual problems, relationship issues and disability. I can suggest resources and many times "what to do next." I can't answer questions that ask for a medical diagnosis, or to recommend a specific medication. I also stay current on issues related to chronic pain as publisher of Chronic Pain Alternatives.

Experience in the area
I am familiar with helping people set up their own pain management program to meet their specific needs. This includes alternative managment techniques such as relaxation training, acupuncture, massage, etc. I have worked with many clients in chronic pain from illness or injury.
