Race Against Pain

Race Against Pain is a public awareness campaign, sponsored by Boston Scientific’s Neuromodulation group, designed to inform chronic pain sufferers of the physician specialists and pain management therapies available to them. Its mission is to shorten the time it takes to find and receive proper care from a pain specialist, while providing a supportive online community to share experiences and objectively discuss treatment options.

The Race Against Pain online forum gives patients access to a community of people with a common affliction who can share experiences and empathize with each another.

Race Against Pain Ambassadors, who are chronic pain patients themselves, travel throughout the United States to introduce this innovative program to healthcare providers and patients.
