Chronic doesn't mean never ending - there is a way forward
Each programme is uniquely tailored to your history, goals and needs. This means that the different treatments and priorities are selected based on your current pain pattern and life situation.
There is no quick fix for your chronic pain. That's why we set aside plenty of time for each session, allowing time for your questions, treatment and pain analysis.
What we have been told about pain can affect how we live with it. These attitudes can even help to perpetuate and exacerbate pain. That's why we want to take the time to better understand your pain and examine some of the pain myths you've been told.
People with chronic pain have often experienced a bit of everything. That's why every programme starts with a free, no-obligation consultation so you can make an informed decision about the next step in pain management.
If you've been in pain for any length of time, you're probably familiar with some of these situations:
Pain can be compared to an overactive smoke alarm. It takes almost nothing for the alarm to go off. The longer you've been in pain, the more sensitive the alarm is. It can feel wildly unfair and many experience anger and powerlessness.
When you need to break free from the pain bubble, we will work to get you away from overprotecting your body with a focus on all the limitations. These limitations are often rooted in misinformation about the body and pain.
In a programme you will, among other things
We will find solutions that speak to your life situation. We will work to minimise the struggle for your body, freeing your body and mind to move in the direction that is meaningful to you.
Psychiatrist Viktor Frankl said that we find meaning in three things. We find deep meaning in relationships, in a task that matters to us and in our attitude towards life.
Pain can shatter even the most beautiful and meaningful dreams. But based on our meaningful dreams, we can take steps out of the prison of pain, and towards activities that are life-affirming and life-giving for us.
We often try to take control of our lives. Suddenly, everyday things become big projects and what used to be natural occurrences are now major projects that need to be well thought through.
It is therefore easy to become more and more controlling of our lives and our bodies. You may have experienced trying to take control of your pain by sitting differently, buying new shoes or a better pillow, only going on short car journeys and not sitting too long before getting up to stretch. You may also have a standing desk at work or at home. Life has been turned upside down and everything is assessed in light of the pain and possible future pain.
It seems paradoxical that when you give up control and all the predictions, the pain can feel less intense. We will therefore introduce you to different techniques to reduce control and be with the pain without judging it or trying to force it to go away.
Pain is complex, and every body and every life is complex, which is why our programmes are tailored to each individual client.
