Patrick Cunningham talking about how the program offers a holistic health solution to monitoring pain, “Usually, a lot of police officers want a quick fix to pain, so they are going to take Advil, ibuprofen, or go to the doctors for something else. But if we can look at it from another angle or viewpoint, I’ll definitely take advantage of it and give it a shot.”
