We’re back with a new episode of The Pain Diaries Podcast.
This time, our pain specialists Dr Nick Christelis and Dr Bradley Lewinsohn explore the most advanced treatment options for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), from sympathetic nerve blocks and ketamine infusions to spinal cord and dorsal root ganglion stimulation.
This expert-led conversation explains how and when to use these therapies, and why early, multidisciplinary care can make all the difference.
As one of Australia's leading multidisciplinary pain specialist clinics, we'll explain what chronic pain is and why it occurs. We'll also explain that chronic pain should be managed as a chronic illness and not just a symptom of an illness.
We will provide you with coping tips and practical guidance to help you take the first steps to getting yourself on the road to recovery.
