Rethinking Pain

More on Managing Pain

If you have already attended our Understanding Pain workshop you will have some knowledge of what pain is, how the body responds to pain and about the benefits of approaching your pain management more holistically – by setting goals that work around your social, emotional, physical and environmental circumstances (day-to-day life, put simply!).

Attending More on Managing Pain allows us to dig a little deeper into some topics covered in Understanding Pain and provides an opportunity to gain more understanding, discuss topics that matter to you and use pacing techniques to do the things that you want to.

What to expect by attending: 

• More about pain relief medications
• More about pain flare ups and how to manage them
• More about ‘pacing’ and the benefits this approach can bring
• How pacing can help you achieve your goals without increasing your pain or tiredness
• To be listened to and discuss topics over refreshments
• A fun, friendly and informal group
