Pain Management Assessment
The explanatory model for ones pain is challenged by our therapists. Barriers and myths about pain are explored.
Pain Management Counselling
Our pain management counselling services are aimed at helping our patients to develop skills and the confidence to self manage their symptoms. The service targets fear avoidance behaviours, pain focused behaviours, depression,
anxiety using relaxation techniques, distraction, pacing, education, reassurance and active coping strategies.
Pain Management Education
One on one education session including detailed physiology of pain and latest research in neurobiology. A big picture approach to our pain management education services, assists in making sense of pain, reducing the “threat value” and reinstating a sense of control in ones own recovery.
