This very question led Dr Hines to open Acadiana Pain and Performance Rehab located in our beloved Lafayette at 325 Oil CenterDr.

Dr. Hines explained that pain is motivation to get better, but once better it can be the memory of that pain which causes a patient to strive for a better, healthier life. In the words of Dr. Hines, “let's make sure we don’t go back there ” Through his worldly experience, Dr Hines has found that aiding the body to heal has a better overall impact on a patient’s health rather than treating a symptom.
