Manchester Physio have specialist physiotherapists who are experienced at designing physiotherapy pain management programmes. They will be able to provide you with a full assessment to identify your main problems. Your physiotherapist will then work with you to devise a tailored pain management programme to help minimise your symptoms.
Pain management is a continuous process and unfortunately long-term pain symptoms cannot be resolved overnight. However, with a specialist pain management programme designed by your physiotherapist, you will be able to take control of your pain and return to the activities and hobbies you enjoy.
