Chronic pain can be one of the most debilitating and frustrating conditions, often limiting your physical abilities and affecting your quality of life.
If you are suffering from persistent pain that just won’t go away, making it difficult to perform everyday activities, it’s crucial to understand your treatment options. Without appropriate management, chronic pain may not only persist but can also lead to further physical and psychological strain.

We are experienced and dedicated, ready to work with you to develop a personalized plan that aims to reduce your pain and restore your mobility. Our team is here to offer support and answer any questions you may have, helping you to manage your condition and improve your overall wellbeing.
Why Am I Having Chronic Pain?
Chronic pain can develop for a variety of reasons, and it often involves complex interactions between physical, psychological, and environmental factors.
Here are some common reasons chronic pain may develop:
An initial injury, such as a back sprain or a serious infection, might lead to chronic pain. Even after the injury has healed, pain signals can remain active in the nervous system for months or years.
Injuries to the nerves during accidents or surgeries can lead to persistent nerve pain. This type of pain can be particularly challenging to manage because nerve pain may not respond well to standard pain treatments.
Certain health conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and inflammatory bowel disease are associated with chronic pain. These conditions often involve inflammation or degenerative changes that persist over a long period, leading to ongoing discomfort.
Chronic pain, especially in the back and neck, can arise from poor posture or prolonged bad ergonomics, such as sitting at a desk in an uncomfortable chair for long periods without adequate support.
Post-surgical complications can lead to chronic pain. For example, scar tissue formation or improper healing after surgery might persist as a source of pain.
Emotional stress and depression can influence the perception of pain and can even transform acute pain into chronic pain. Stress can cause tension in the body and reduce the production of natural painkillers.
Inactivity can exacerbate certain types of pain. Regular physical activity is crucial in managing pain conditions because it strengthens muscles, reduces inflammation, and improves mood.
With aging, the body undergoes various changes that can increase susceptibility to chronic pain. For example, joint degradation (as seen in osteoarthritis), bone density loss, and decreased muscle strength can contribute to discomfort and pain.
If you are suffering from any of these conditions, please do not hesitate to contact Adaptive Allied Health in Booragoon for assistance.
Will Physiotherapy Help My Chronic Pain?
Chronic pain is a complex condition that affects millions globally, manifesting in persistent pain that lasts weeks to years, often even after the initial injury or illness has healed. This type of pain can severely limit your mobility, diminish quality of life, and cause significant emotional distress. Physiotherapy is recognized as an effective approach to managing chronic pain, focusing not just on alleviating symptoms but also on addressing the root causes and contributing factors.
Physiotherapy offers a multifaceted approach to pain management that includes a variety of treatments such as manual therapy, tailored exercise programs, and education on pain management and lifestyle modifications. These interventions aim to improve function, enhance mobility, and strengthen the body, which can significantly reduce the perception of pain. A physiotherapist will work closely with you to identify the specific factors contributing to your chronic pain and develop a personalized treatment plan that suits your individual needs.
Education is another crucial component of physiotherapy for chronic pain. Understanding pain physiology and learning how to manage pain effectively can empower patients, reducing fear and anxiety associated with chronic pain. This knowledge, combined with practical tools and strategies for pain management, can lead to significant improvements in overall well-being.
If you are struggling with chronic pain, consulting with a skilled physiotherapist at our clinic can help you regain control over your life, reduce your pain, and improve your mobility.
