I’ve worked with thousands of people suffering from nerve pain, neuropathy or other nerve-related symptoms, and they all have one thing in common: their quality of life is being degraded over time.
The people I can usually help have often seen two or three practitioners and visited their GP. The GP has either told them there’s nothing that can be done or prescribed pain pills that they’re expected to take for years, just hoping the pain will go away. This often leaves people feeling hopeless, frustrated and let down by a healthcare system they’ve paid into for years.
We take a completely different approach here. The first thing we do is talk to our patients about their lives. We find out what they love to do, what they’re missing out on and what the problem is getting in the way of. From there, we create a plan to get them back to doing what they love.
If they have a fear of ending up like a parent who is no longer able to move easily, we work to ensure that never happens. If they miss playing with their grandkids, we make a plan to help them get up and down from the floor and play again. Whatever the person’s goals are, big or small, we work to accommodate them.
Some of our patients just want to be able to get out of a chair again, while others want to run a marathon. We’ve helped people at both ends of the spectrum and everyone in between. We’re incredibly honoured to help people in this population.
One of the biggest issues we see is how many people come to us after being told there’s nothing that can be done – that their only options are painkillers, surgery or injections. They’re often told physiotherapy won’t help, so they shouldn’t bother trying. Many times, this is simply untrue. We’ve been able to achieve transformations for people that others said weren’t possible, as long as they commit to working with us for a period of time.
If any of this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. We can talk to you with absolutely no commitment required, to see if we’re a good fit and help you start a life with less discomfort.
