How we started

Lumina Health was the dream of Dr. André Boezaart, a pain specialist with more than 40 years of experience ranging from austere pain medicine in the military to private practice. Having learned what people need to manage pain and pain conditions more effectively, Boezaart wanted to develop a way to help any person in pain, anywhere in the world, anytime. Lumina Health was born.

As a team of medical, content, tech, commercial, and behavior experts, we've combined our passions for education, innovation, creativity, and positive change to empower people all over the world living with pain.

Our commitment to pain

We know that pain is personal. We know it can be debilitating. We know it is a complex interplay of biological, psychological, and social factors. We also know it can be overcome, and we are committed to providing each individual living with pain what they need — when and how they need it — to help them live a life beyond pain.

Who we are

Clinical leadership

We want people living with pain to be given the respect, validation, and treatment they deserve.
