What is chronic pain?
When pain persists for over three months, it’s categorised as chronic. This can range from back pain to neck or joint pain, with the source of your pain often influencing the type of chronic pain you have.
For instance, sports injuries can lead to chronic pain in the injured region, while conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome often cause persistent pain in the wrist and hands.
To provide effective treatment, identifying the cause of your pain is vital.
What to expect with treatment
Initial consultation
To start, we’ll meet with you to discuss your needs, concerns, medical history, and preferences.
Physical examination
We will conduct a physical exam to help pinpoint the exact cause of your chronic pain.
Treatment
Next, we’ll apply osteopathic techniques to provide pain relief. Using gentle, manual manipulation of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, we aim to ease muscle tension and enhance your overall health. Additionally, we’ll incorporate tailored exercise rehabilitation to address the issue long-term.

What techniques do you use to address chronic pain?
To manage chronic pain, we offer a variety of techniques, such as soft tissue massage, Muscle Energy Technique, joint mobilisation, and spinal manipulation, tailored to your needs.
Our treatments include dry needling, where your osteopath inserts sterilised needles into muscles to reduce tension and provide relief.
Is osteopathy painful?
Although there may be some discomfort, our team ensures methods are tailored to your tolerance, aiming to improve your overall health.
How many sessions are needed to treat my chronic pain?
You might experience relief after a single session, but to truly benefit, following a series of sessions is usually recommended. Chronic pain often demands a long-term approach, and while quick fixes are rare, our team is specially trained to help enhance your quality of life.
