Pain has both physical and psychological components. It’s important to treat the source on both levels.
Our principal physiotherapist, Tyne Timmers, holds a Masters in Medicine (Pain Management). She introduced a holistic, biopsychosocial approach at Aspire Physiotherapy Bunbury.
This approach combines psychology with physical therapy. It guides both assessment and treatment of chronic pain.
Unfortunately, along the way they often have become less and less active, wasting away muscle resulting in weakness, fatigue and potentially causing other injuries, or secondary injury.
A lack of movement through fear of harm can actually have a devastating impact on a person’s mental and physical wellbeing resulting in a downward spiral of more pain and even less mobility.
When pain lasts longer than three months, it often becomes more complex than just tissue damage. Factors like stress, posture, past injuries, and even lifestyle habits can all contribute to ongoing discomfort. This means that medication alone is rarely the full solution. A holistic, evidence-based strategy is essential to manage persistent pain effectively.
If you’re frustrated with the way your pain has been managed and would like to rid yourself of pain so you can feel and act like yourself again, book an initial appointment with one of our physiotherapists today to get an initial assessment.
