Chronic pain management therapy

Manage your pain & learn positive thought patterns to change your lifestyle for the better.

What is chronic pain management therapy?

We all suffer pain during different parts of our lives and for different reasons, but for some, this pain may be long term and chronic. But pain not only affects physical wellbeing, but emotional too. This can severely affect your quality of life as well as everyday activities other people consider normal. Chronic pain management therapy gives you the guidelines and solutions that help you manage all this better.

How we help

Learning to manage and cope with pain is not an easy task. At Pinnacle, we’ll work with you and teach you how to react and manage your pain, reducing your mental suffering. We’ll do this by using psychotherapy for chronic pain management, improving your physical, emotional, social and occupational health rather than resolving the pain itself.

While each circumstance is different, we typically use a combination of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and hypnotherapy as well as psychotherapy and counselling techniques.

These treatments can help you build a better relationship with your pain and to learn positive thought patterns to help change your lifestyle for the better. Improved sleep, regular paced exercise and breathing techniques all result from receiving cognitive behavioural therapy or hypnotherapy.

“Psychological treatments are an important part of pain management. Understanding and managing the thoughts, emotions and behaviours that accompany the discomfort can help you cope more effectively with your pain—and can reduce the intensity of your pain.” Richard Reid – CEO, Therapist & Coaching Psychologist
