CHRONIC PAIN MANAGEMENT
BOOK ONLINEPersistent Pain Management in Cambridge
Living with persistent musculoskeletal pain requires a comprehensive, evidence-based approach. Roshan provides expert assessment, education, and graded rehabilitation to help you understand your pain, build confidence in movement, and improve your quality of life.
What to Expect from Treatment
Chronic (persistent) pain lasting more than 3 months involves changes in how the nervous system processes pain signals. This doesn't mean the pain isn't real — it means that treatment must address both the physical and neurological aspects. Roshan's approach combines pain neuroscience education, graded exposure to movement, progressive strengthening, and pacing strategies. The goal is to reduce fear of movement, build physical capacity, and improve daily function. Treatment plans are collaborative and patient-led, with realistic goal-setting and regular reassessment. Many patients with chronic pain improve significantly with the right combination of education and graduated exercise.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why hasn't my pain gone away after 3 months?
Pain lasting beyond normal tissue healing times (typically 3 months) often involves sensitisation of the nervous system. This is treatable — physiotherapy using graded exercise and pain education can help retrain the pain system and improve your function.
Is exercise safe if I have chronic pain?
Yes. Graduated, guided exercise is one of the most effective treatments for chronic pain. Roshan will design a programme that starts at a comfortable level and progresses safely based on your response.
