(Hands-free, nervous system–led support for chronic or recurring pain)

A structured, evidence-informed online assessment and support approach for people living with chronic or recurring pain (pain lasting longer than 3 months, or that keeps returning).

This option is suitable when hands-on treatment is not required, not available, or when symptoms are best addressed through pattern assessment, nervous system support and mind–body strategies.

🔍 This online approach is especially suited for pain that:

⏳ Has lasted longer than expected

🔁 Keeps returning despite treatment

❓ Appeared “out of nowhere”, without a clear injury

📈 Fluctuates with stress, illness, overload or life events

🧠 Is strongly influenced by fear, anticipation or flare-up cycles

🧠 What we focus on online

Sessions are hands-free and centre on understanding and changing the drivers of persistent pain.

This may include:

🩺 Detailed symptom and pain pattern assessment

🔁 Identification of triggers, flare patterns and maintaining loops

🧠 Nervous system and stress-response education

🧩 Mind–body strategies informed by SIRPA principles

🌿 Trauma-informed support where appropriate and relevant

🧘 Practical regulation tools (breathing, grounding, attention and pacing strategies)

All work is adapted case-by-case.

📋 What happens in online sessions

🧭 Comprehensive history and symptom mapping

🧠 Pain, stress and nervous system pattern assessment

🔍 Trauma screening where appropriate (never assumed)

🛠️ Tailored mind–body and self-regulation strategies

📈 Ongoing review of responses and symptom changes

Sessions are collaborative, paced, and always led by safety and consent.

🎯 This online option may suit you if:

🔹 You have chronic pain or widespread symptoms

🔹 Your pain hasn’t responded to standard physical treatment alone

🔹 You want a hands-free approach

🔹 You are already under medical care and want additional support

🔹 You are working alongside physiotherapy, osteopathy, counselling or medical treatment

This work can be done:

✔️ As a stand-alone approach

✔️ Alongside medical treatment and/or counselling

🚦 Safety first — always

🛑 This approach does not replace medical assessment

🩺 You may be asked to seek GP, specialist or imaging input where appropriate

🔍 Red flags and safety checks are prioritised at all times

🤝 Collaboration with other healthcare professionals is encouraged

✅ Important to know

❌ You do not need to believe your pain is “psychological”

✔️ Pain is recognised as real, physical and lived, with nervous system processes often playing a role in persistence
