September is Pain Awareness Month.
Living with pain can be exhausting 😩.
Most people don’t realise that pain doesn’t always mean tissue damage.
It is a real pain but caused by changes in your nervous system.
There is no single fix for most long term pain, so a multi-disciplinary approach works best.
This team includes your GP, physiotherapist, psychologist, occupational therapist, pain specialist, nurse, pharmacist and pain medicine consultant.
Physiotherapy helps by using exercise to reduce the fear around movement and to normalise correct movement patterns.
Your pain is real. It deserves a team not a quick fix, it won’t make every bad day vanish but we can help you do lots of what matters to you.
