CHRONIC PAIN 
PHYSIOTHERAPY BRISBANE

Chronic pain and is a highly prevalent problem worldwide with up to 10 to 20% of the population experiencing some form of recurrent pain. Pain persisting for longer than three months is considered ‘chronic’. Chronic pain often persists in the absence tissue pathology and sometimes the experience of pain can remain after an injury has been resolved.

Pain is complex with biological (our body tissues), psychological (such as mood and stress) and social (cultural) factors contributing to our experience of pain. Pain is a protective mechanism of the brain, giving us a warning signal that something we are doing could lead to tissue damage, though it is not always indicative that something is physically wrong with our tissues. For example, pressing your fingernail into the nail bed of another finger causes a lot of pain though there is no damage in doing.

With persistent chronic pain, pain extends beyond the normal range of tissue healing and the brain becomes overprotective in order to minimise any damage occurring to our bodies again by using this hypervigilant pain response. Some of the most common chronic pain conditions include chronic low back pain, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and headaches.

The area of symptoms and severity of symptoms will guide the mode and extent of treatment, however globally, physiotherapy aims to restore function and independence with activities. Using a gradual approach to movement, physiotherapy will help to decrease pain by increase activity levels, pain free movement and is useful in strengthening muscles weakened with long term disuse. Physiotherapists can also help teach techniques such as mindfulness and breathing exercises to aid in relaxation and physiotherapy treatment can have beneficial effects on not only physical pain, but getting you physically active and can have a positive effect on mood.
