What is pain management?

Pain management is the process of relieving, reducing, or preventing physical pain using a combination of treatments such as physical therapy (like massage and strengthening exercises), psychological therapies (like mindfulness and CBT), integrative techniques (like nutrition and hot/cold therapy) and medication.

An effective pain management plan includes assessment, diagnosis and continued support. It is tailored to the patients type, term (short-term vs. long-term) and severity of pain.

Reviews

  • "I was in extreme pain in my shoulder, and was not willing to wait weeks for my gp to offer treatment. I was fortunate to find the colchester injection clinic. After 24 hours miraculously i was free of pain, with a full range of movement."

    Jayne Milwain

  • "I cannot thank Jon enough at the Colchester Clinic. I had excruciating nerve type pain in my shoulder and arm 24/7 from a trapped nerve due to wear and tear. After 3 lots of Prolozone therapy over those 6 weeks my pain completely went, and 7 weeks on I still have no pain. Thank you. Worth every penny!"
