National Pain Week 2024 - Day 1: The First Consultation with a Pain Specialist – Why it Matters

While we recognise National Pain Week this week, at Pain Specialists Australia every week is Pain Week for us. We have dedicated our practice to treating chronic pain all year round.

As one of Australia's leading pain clinics, we have made pain our world, which allows us to be leaders in reducing pain and the suffering it causes. 

National Pain Week is Australia’s annual awareness event for chronic pain. Chronic Pain Australia aims to draw attention to the experiences of those living with chronic pain and reduce the social and other barriers associated with managing this condition.

At Pain Specialists Australia, we understand the daily challenges faced by those with chronic pain. Our mission is to provide compassionate, effective care to help you live a more comfortable and fulfilling life.

To raise awareness for National Pain Week, Pain Specialists Australia will be publishing a short educational video each day this week, starting with The First Consultation with a Pain Specialist – Why it Matters.

The first consultation with a Pain Specialist is one of the most important aspects of pain management. It allows the patient to tell their pain story in detail. It allows the Pain Specialist to understand the pain and how it is affecting the patient. Learn more about what you need to come away with after that first consultation.

Our other videos this week will include:

• Defining Chronic Pain: What you need to know

• The Effects of Chronic Pain: Exploring its far-reaching Consequences

• Decoding Your Chronic Pain: Nociception vs Pain

• Chronic Shoulder Pain – Radiofrequency Ablation of the Articular Branch Nerves

• Can Chronic Pain Be Fatal? Understanding the Risks

• Decoding Your Chronic Pain: The Power of Curiosity & Actively Understanding Pain

And more. 

Join us this National Pain Week to raise awareness and support the chronic pain community. Together, we can make a difference.
