Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/15/2015 -- While there are plenty of resources available online, parents of children who suffer from Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome (AMPS) may find it difficult to conglomerate all of the information on this painful disorder in one place, or find a way by which they can meet others who battle the same issues daily. Stop Childhood Pain, a website run by the Childhood RND Educational Foundation, Inc., strives to provide many different forms of media, from scientific articles to videos available for purchase, to better aid parents, guardians and medical professionals in learning more about treatment options and where to turn for help and support.

Whether seeking information on available intensive physical therapy or occupational therapy in their area, looking to learn more about the types of physical therapy used to aid children with AMPS, or simply interested in finding out more about the pain syndromes that fall underneath the umbrella of "musculoskeletal pain" – including fibromyalgia, diffuse amplified pain, complex regional pain syndrome, reflective neurovascular dystrophy and others –Stop Childhood Pain represents an effort by specialists to educate both the public and the medical community at large about these childhood disorders.

Headed by David D. Sherry, M.D., all proceeds made from donations or the sale of educational videos on the website goes towards promoting public and professional awareness of AMPS and its treatment, as well as further research towards finding a cure or improving effective treatments at the Children's Hospital of Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/20/2015 -- Parents who have watched their children suffer from amplified musculoskeletal pain syndromes (AMPS) often feel helpless when attempting to find resources, expert advice and support for their child's disease. Whether researching a treatment facility with medical experts who specialize in AMPS, deciding on a treatment plan or simply looking to connect with others who can relate to their struggles, it can be difficult to find information aggregated in a way that's ultimately useful for patients and their families. The Stop Childhood Pain website, run by the Childhood RND Educational Foundation, Inc., announces that it is providing resources to help parents and medical professionals learn more about these conditions and how they're treated at some of the world's leading children's hospitals.

The Childhood RND Educational Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit organization formed in 2002, with the aim of educating both healthcare professionals and the general public about pediatric AMPS.

Along with diffusing information about treatment option efficacy and research, Stop Childhood Pain supports research on AMPS at the Children's Hospital of Pennsylvania, where an intensive treatment program is showing extremely positive results.
