Chronic pain and chronic health conditions are a very common problem we face in the community these days. This has significant repercussions on your mental health, physical health and your body’s ability to health and recover from injuries. There are multiple contributing factors and triggers to these presentations that all need to be identified and addressed systematically in order of importance to you and how these impact your ability to function in life and every day ‘joie de vivre’.

Injuries mis diagnosed, mis managed or simply persistent over months and years will lead to changes in your body at a structural level but also functional level whether this be neurological or systematic. If you get to that point you will need extra help to assist you in identifying the primary drivers of your presentation, give you management strategies to manage these, and guide you through your return to full function and health with clear and specific goals.
