FAQs
What are the benefits of working with a therapist?
Research shows that the best way to treat chronic pain is through a range of approaches. One of the most effective is psychotherapy – where patients learn about pain, their beliefs and thoughts about pain, and how to change their thinking. Patients who utilise psychotherapy alongside other treatment modalities are more likely to experience a reduction in their pain, and an increase in their mobility, function and wellbeing.
How long is the course?
The Chronic Pain Method training course is run over two 4-day blocks, with a 2-week break in the middle.
Who teaches the course?
The training course involves several health professionals including a physiotherapist trained in the Chronic Pain Method who has been implementing the model for two years, a lecturer in psychotherapy with 30 years’ experience, and an affiliate of a registered training organisation.

What if I don’t like the therapist I’m paired with?
We believe that the best results occur when patients and practitioners feel comfortable with one another. If the patient is happy with the therapist, swapping to another person may compromise the treatment. Of course, if you have serious concerns about the therapist you’re working with please contact us to discuss your concerns.
What’s the benefit for the patients?
Patients being treated under The Chronic Pain Method treatment module are more likely to experience positive results in managing their chronic pain.
This is because treatments are based on best-practice and scientific evidence in chronic pain management research.
Patients also benefit by having a team of health practitioners who can discuss their case without them having to manage communication between individual practitioners.
How will this benefit my practice?
