Pain Care Aware™ is a program for yoga professionals, fitness professionals and healthcare professionals who work with people in pain.

“Our mission is to decrease the impact of pain on society through traditional yoga teachings and pain science, lead by compassionate hearts of service”.

PCA does not seek to treat pain, but rather to recognize that pain is a human condition and that our language and approach can be adapted to support students experiencing pain during yoga.
