Our pain clinic focuses specifically on helping individuals manage chronic pain. Our multidisciplinary team aim to improve the quality of life for patients dealing with prolonged discomfort, attempting to reduce the severity of their symptoms and helping them to live a more comfortable and pain-free life.
We offer a range of services including:
- Pain Assessment: A detailed analysis of your particular pain, its history, its triggers, and how it affects your daily routines and lifestyle.
- Medication Management: Reviewing, advising on, and adjusting medications to achieve the greatest benefit with the least side effect or risk.
- Physical Therapies: Techniques like physiotherapy, exercises, massage, or acupuncture to help manage pain.
- Psychological Support: Counselling, cognitive behavioral therapy, and other approaches to help manage the emotional impact of chronic pain.
- Invasive Procedures: If necessary, procedures like injections, nerve blocks, or surgery can be used to target specific sources of pain.
The processes involved in accessing these services start with a referral, typically from your GP. Following the referral, an initial consultation allowing your pain clinic team to understand your individual situation. Then they'll develop a personalised treatment plan, being the commencement of your journey towards managing and reducing your chronic pain in a pain clinic.
The assessment process in our pain clinic often involves a thorough physical examination, along with diagnostic tests such as MRI, CT scans, and X-rays. This detailed evaluation helps to identify the exact nature and source of your pain.
Continuous reviews are an integral part of pain management in the clinic. They help in monitoring your progress and adjusting the treatment plan where necessary.
The emphasis in the pain clinic is not just on treating pain, but focusing on collectively improving our patient’s quality of life. We often include support for mental and emotional wellness as part of the treatment plan.
