If you’ve been living with chronic pain, you know how it reshapes your world…
It can steal your energy, interrupt your sleep, impact your relationships, and leave you feeling disconnected from your own body. You’ve likely tried everything from medications, appointments, treatments and more, but still find yourself stuck in cycles of pain, frustration, and fatigue.
This course offers another way.
Pathways to Pain Relief is a self-paced online course designed to help you reconnect with your body, understand the science of pain, release emotional tension, and create a sustainable healing plan that feels personal, empowering, and rooted in possibility.
Healing doesn’t mean pretending pain isn’t there.
It means shifting how you relate to it - with curiosity, compassion, and the right tools.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all formula.
Pathways to Pain Relief blends science, somatic practice, support in building a personalized plan and compassionate coaching to help you create a new relationship with pain, one rooted in understanding, regulation, and possibility.
You’ll learn how to:
Understand how pain is created, amplified, and sustained
Soothe your nervous system and release emotional tension
Build sustainable daily practices that support healing
Shift the way you relate to pain—and to yourself

The course is built around three powerful modules, each designed to move you from understanding pain to integrating practices that truly support healing.
What You’ll Experience
01
Understanding the Science of Pain
“Pain starts in the body, but it’s the brain that decides what to do with that signal.”
HERE IS WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
What chronic pain actually is and why your brain plays a key role
How painkillers work (and why they often fall short)
The role of the vagus nerve, inflammation, and neuroplasticity
Simple daily practices to begin calming the pain loop
02
Emotions & Pain – Releasing the Body’s Stories
“You’re not too sensitive. Your body is protecting you.”
HERE IS WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
Emotions as messengers, not as threats
How the mind-body connection influences your pain experience
Rewriting your pain narrative through somatic and reflective tools
Building courage, motivation, and resilience - one small step at a time
03
Building Your Personalized Healing Path
“You are adaptable. You are capable. Your body is not the enemy.”
HERE IS WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
Integration and routine: weaving healing into your daily life
Nourishment, movement, and nervous system support tailored to your needs
Your personal healing tracker and plan
How to trust yourself again, and celebrate your adaptability
This is a guided journey back to your body’s inner wisdom.
This course was designed for you if:
You're living with chronic pain and want real tools to support change
You’re tired of feeling at war with your body
You want to understand what’s happening in your nervous system and why
You’re open to gentle, holistic practices like breathwork, acupressure, and movement
You’re ready to feel more empowered, less afraid, and more at home in your body
You don’t need perfect routines or a wellness background. Just curiosity, self-compassion, and a willingness to explore.

Her calm demeanor, gentle technique and inutitive treatments deliver results… I greatly trust in Shannon’s avilities to treat the whole person.”

I am incredibly grateful to have my life back.
I have been coming to Shannon for almost 2 years when traditional doctors had not been able to make any difference in my almost daily, severe vertigo episodes (Meniere's), even after trying many medications. Today I have been free of vertigo episodes for close to 6 months.
- KC
Shannon is a joy to work with.
Often times, she addresses not only your immediate needs, but looks to the bigger picture in your life. I could go to Shannon inefinitely for quick patch jobs… rather than maintain me, she is helping me shift my health and improve it.
