Chronic Pain Management Frequently Asked Questions
What is Chronic Pain Management?
Chronic pain is pain that lasts longer than three months and can significantly affect your ability to engage in everyday activities.
Our Chronic Pain Management services focus on understanding the underlying causes of your pain and implementing strategies to improve function, reduce discomfort, and enhance quality of life. Through a combination of physical rehabilitation, lifestyle modifications, and pain management techniques, we aim to empower you with the tools needed to manage pain more effectively.
Our approach is holistic, addressing not just the physical aspects of pain but also the emotional, psychological, and social factors that contribute to your experience of pain.
Is Chronic Pain Management Covered by Medicare?
Chronic Pain Management services may be covered under certain Medicare programs if referred by a GP as part of a care plan, such as through the Chronic Disease Management (CDM) scheme.
