My interest in chronic pain was ignited on undertaking a research project into the influences on an individual’s pain experience during my physiotherapy degree back in 2006. This interest has continued to grow and as a result since moving to British Columbia, from the UK, I have been drawn to work with Pain BC, a leading organization supporting people experiencing chronic pain. I have volunteered as a coach with Pain BC from early 2020, having completed two volunteer coach trainings as well as Pain BC’s Gentle Movement and Relaxation training for Health Professionals.

 

My passion for working in this area continued to develop and I have since completed training with SIRPA. SIRPA is a UK based physiotherapist led organization at the forefront of chronic pain knowledge, recognizing the full spectrum of influences that perpetuate the chronic pain cycle.

With this knowledge and experience I offer physiotherapy and coaching specializing in the treatment of chronic pain using a trauma informed and client centered approach. Techniques I often incorporate may include:

​

• Chronic pain evidence-based information;

• Identification and treatment of chronic pain triggers;

• Graded motor visioning;

• Pain reprocessing;

• Soft tissue treatment;

• Functional re-conditioning.

 

I offer clients a safe, confidential space to share their experience of living with chronic pain, alongside reconnecting with who they are. 

 

Chronic pain is complex, there are many factors which influence it, which also means there are many ways to reduce it. Together we will discover how to teach your body a different way of being.
