Chronic pain physio Frankston
A practical starting point for persistent pain
When pain persists, it can be hard to judge what activity feels manageable or how to make progress. You’ll have time to tell Ash what you’ve been through and how pain affects your day. Together, you’ll find a starting point for movement and rehabilitation, then review it as you go.
Persistent pain is personal
Persistent pain can be influenced by tissue health, nervous-system sensitivity, a previous injury, sleep, stress, activity levels and other health factors. The pain is real. Ash will take time to understand your pain and what makes a day easier or harder.
What your assessment may include
Ash will discuss your symptoms, health history, daily activities and goals, including what aggravates or eases the pain. Assessment may include relevant movement, strength, joint and neurological tests. If a medical review or further investigation may be appropriate, Ash will explain why.
