A Six-Week Psychological Pain Management Programme
For people who want more than symptom relief, they want to reclaim their life.
Introduction
Pain has a way of reshaping a life. It changes how you move, how you think, and how you relate to yourself. Many people are left feeling lost between medical appointments, unsure how to move forward, and weary from the constant battle with their own body.
This programme is designed as a calmer, more thoughtful alternative to traditional pain services. This is a private, psychologically informed pathway that helps you rebuild confidence, movement, and identity.
Across six weeks, you will learn how to understand your pain, your nervous system, navigate fear, and step back into the life you want to live, guided by evidence-based psychological approaches used in high-performance sport and modern pain science rehabilitation.
Who This Programme Is For
This programme is for individuals living with persistent or recurring pain who want:
A clearer understanding of what’s happening in their body
Tools to manage fear, catastrophising, and flare-ups
A compassionate, structured space to rebuild movement and confidence
A premium alternative to NHS pain management pathways
Support rooted in psychological science rather than quick fixes
No prior experience with therapy or pain programmes is required.
What You Will Learn
Over six weeks, you will explore the foundations of modern pain psychology, including:
How pain persists even after tissues have healed
How fear, avoidance, and self-criticism intensify symptoms
How to move from struggle into acceptance and meaningful action
How to use compassion to calm an over-protective threat system
How to rebuild identity and trust in the body
How to create a confident, sustainable plan for movement and wellbeing
Each session blends education with guided practice, reflection, and supportive discussion.
