Frequently Ask Questions
1. What is chronic pain and how can physio help?
Chronic pain persists beyond normal healing time (typically 3+ months). Our physios use graded movement, targeted exercises and education to retrain your nervous system and improve function while reducing pain sensitivity.
2. What conditions do you treat?
We specialize in managing:
- Arthritis (osteo & rheumatoid)
- Fibromyalgia
- Chronic back/neck pain
- Nerve pain (sciatica, neuropathy)
- Post-surgical persistent pain
3. What techniques do you use?
Our toolkit includes:
- Gentle joint mobilizations
- Therapeutic exercises (Pilates-based, aquatic-inspired)
- Pacing strategies
- Posture/ergonomic advice
- Relaxation techniques
4. How is this different from regular physio?
We focus on pain science education to help you understand why you hurt, along with paced activity programs that prevent boom-bust cycles common in chronic conditions.
5. Will it hurt?
We use graded exposure – starting with what you can comfortably do and gradually progressing. You control the pace.
6. How many sessions will I need?
Most patients see improvements in 4-6 sessions, but complex cases may require 10-12. We’ll give you a clear roadmap after your assessment.
7. Can I combine this with other treatments?
Absolutely! We coordinate with pain clinics, GPs, and specialists (with your consent) for integrated care.
8. Do you provide home exercises?
Yes – you’ll receive a personalized home exercise program via our app or printed materials.
9. Is this covered by insurance?
Most major UK insurers cover chronic pain physio. We provide HCPC-registered invoices for claims.
