Chronic pain is a rapidly-growing medical condition in Australia, with 1 in 5 Australians living with chronic pain!
Affecting people of all ages – children and adolescents right through to elderly – chronic pain can be debilitating for sufferers because of the severity or persistence of their experience.
This week is National Pain Week (26 July to 1 August).
Chronic Pain Australia have organised a number of events and webinars to build awareness and education. They have also released results to a 2022 National Pain Survey in the context of their strategic mission to ensure that all Australians living with chronic pain receive Triple A standards of care – Awareness, Accessibility and Affordability.
As a GP and allied health clinic, our team are ready and able to support patients experiencing chronic pain. With osteopathy, myotherapy, exercise physiology, and GPs available, we can work with you to develop a personalised plan to treat and manage your pain. If you need help working out where to start, give us a call to find out more.
