Specialises in
I am a caring and compassionate GP of 29 years experience with a special interest in chronic pain, chronic fatigue, mental health and the connection between mind and body. For the past 5 years I have been specialising in a medication-free treatment for chronic pain called Pain Reprocessing Therapy, a holistic approach to treatment that understands the role of the brain in the onset and maintenance of chronic pain, the connection between mind and body and the role of therapy in supporting you in your recovery.
By combining up-to-date pain neuroscience education with simple cognitive, behavioural and mindfulness techniques, it is possible to identify the effects of stress, emotions and past trauma, learn how to regulate the nervous system and retrain the brain to turn off unnecessary pain signals, empowering you to break free from the vicious cycle of chronic pain, anxiety and distress - without the need for medication or invasive procedures.
Pain Reprocessing Therapy is suitable for chronic pain due to:
The initial appointment will be of 50 minutes duration in order to make a full assessment of your pain with advice and discussion about suitability for pain reprocessing therapy. If needed, I find that 6 - 8 individualised therapy sessions
are usually required, depending on the complexity of the problem, to teach the specific techniques that can help you regulate your pain.
Please note that this is a medication-free approach to treatment, and I will not be prescribing medication or offering injections or other invasive procedures.
