OUR FIVE PILLARS
Pain care includes more than one treatment. These five themes help shape a thoughtful conversation about movement and daily life.
CHRONIC PAIN MANAGEMENT
Evidence-based treatment for persistent pain and movement limitations starts with a conversation about your experience and goals. Your care may bring together movement, education and hands-on treatment, with attention to the everyday factors below.
Pain education
Pain neuroscience education is a conversation about how pain works and the factors that can influence it. Your therapist can help you make sense of your experience without reducing it to a single image or diagnosis.
Aerobic activity
Activity is adapted to your abilities and goals. Your clinician can help you discuss an appropriate level and type of movement as part of your wider care plan.
Goal setting
Meaningful goals connect care with real life. We talk about what you want to do, agree on practical steps, and review how things are going.
Sleep
Sleep is part of the conversation about wellbeing. Tell your clinician if sleep is affecting daily life so you can discuss appropriate support.
Hydration
Hydration is one of the practice’s five wellbeing themes. Individual fluid needs and restrictions vary; your healthcare team can advise you where medical conditions affect them.
