The Program Creator
My name is Crystal, I am a certified pain coach based in Boulder, CO and I HAVE BEEN IN YOUR PLACE and experienced first hand what it is like to live a life of experiencing chronic pain. 7 years ago I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease, and I thought my life was over. I had full body pain and could barely stand on my feet for extended periods of time. As someone who grew up a very active person with rock climbing, hiking, backpacking, I was determined to find a way to get back to being “me” . I used many of the approaches I now teach to re-take control of my body and now I am not only healthier but I became an acrobat! I am also the living and breathing proof that these practices work and can say today that I no longer live in pain. I went on to learn the systematic way of teaching others how to overcome pain with a company called Lin Health. This brings me here to share with you everything I have learned along the way and save you the time from having to discover it yourself or maybe you never knew there was a way to be free! I have helped hundreds of individuals heal from their pain and take back their lives, now it is your turn!
What Is Pain Reprocessing?
Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) is a science-based approach that helps reduce or eliminate chronic pain by retraining the brain to stop interpreting normal sensations as danger. It focuses on pain education, reducing fear and hypervigilance, changing thought and emotional responses to symptoms, and gradually returning to valued activities—so the nervous system learns safety and turns off the pain alarm.
Central Sensitization
Central sensitization is when the brain and nervous system become overly sensitive, so normal sensations (or mild signals) can feel much more painful or intense—like your body’s alarm system is turned up too high.
Neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity is your brain’s ability to change and rewire based on what you repeatedly experience and practice—meaning it can learn pain, but it can also unlearn pain and build new pathways for safety and healing.
Turning Down The Signals
To turn down these signals, the goal is to retrain your brain and nervous system to stop treating sensations as danger. You do this by practicing a calm, safety-based response to symptoms (instead of bracing, scanning, or panicking), using tools like slow breathing, mindfulness, and self-reassurance to signal “I’m safe.” You also work on reducing fear-based thoughts about pain, shifting attention back to life, and gradually returning to movement and activities in a paced way. Over time, these repeated experiences teach your nervous system that your body isn’t in danger—so the “alarm system” turns down and symptoms often become less intense and less frequent.
What To Expect
Everyone’s healing journey looks different because the reason your body might be protecting you is unique to your own experiences and memories. Off the bat, we begin by shifting your relationship with the pain to lesson it’s impact and get back to meaningful activity in your life. We then continue to explore ways to teach your nervous system that there is no threat, lowering it’s need to send a pain signal in the first place and getting away from central sensitization. I like to describe the nervous system as an overprotective mom, it’s doing exactly what it is designed to do, but too well. There are no time-lines to this process but we really start to see shifts in the impact of pain within the first 3 months and more progress after 6 months. Some people see results immediately and some take years, what is important is to trust the process and offer grace and compassion for yourself along the way.
