Top Tips on Caring for Someone with Chronic Pain

Caring for someone with chronic pain? It isn’t easy, but there are ways you can support them in managing their condition with these top tips from our Newcastle Under Lyme chiropractor:

If you know or care for someone who has chronic pain, there are things you can do to help support them in managing their condition.

Listen

Understanding what chronic pain feels like can be difficult if you haven’t experienced it yourself. Do your best to listen when the person you care for tells you how they feel. It may also be a good idea to speak with their medical team or go along to appointments to gain a better insight into their condition.

Encourage teamwork

Chronic pain isn’t something anyone should have to experience alone. A strong support team is likely to help the person you’re caring for to manage their condition.

Continue to treat them as a person

Although you’re naturally going to show concern about a person in pain, it’s also important to show interest in other parts of their life such as their hobbies, job and family. This will help to remind your loved one that you see them as a rounded human being and that you don’t define them by their chronic pain condition.

Our team of chiropractors are always here with help and advice.

   I don’t know what I’d do without my monthly appointment. My movement vastly improved and there has been a reduction in persistent when I discovered this clinic.

   After being diagnosed with BPPV Vertigo I was really suffering and after not really making any progress with the Betahistine prescribed by the Doctor at the Royal Stoke I decided to see Dr Finn, who has previously resolved other muscular and skeletal injuries for myself and my family. With BPPV Vertigo being an issue with the inner ear I wasn’t sure if this was something he could resolve promptly ? The clinic fitted me in really quickly and after just two short visits my BPPV was fully resolved. After spending so much time on 111 and at the hospital I was relieved at how swiftly and efficiently Dr Finn resolved my BPPV, which was really bad. I can fully recommend this clinic for this and other treatments in a professional and effective manner. 10/10

   My wife was suddenly in real pain around her hip area and upon making a phone call to Newcastle Chiropractic was given an immediate appointment. With a total of no more than 20 minutes she was feeling a lot less pain and doing gentle walking as recommended by Rob. She’s very grateful with a lot less pain and feeling mobile again.

   I first started seeing Rob in 1998 when he took over from Jane Hvas at the Brampton Clinic.  I have now been a patient of Robs for 25 years.  I don't know what I would have done without the treatment and support I have re eived from him.  He's simply the best.

   Dott. Burcu Cetinkaya is the best chiropractor I've ever been  treated by, and I've had many. Since the first visit at the clinic I've been examinated and listened very carefully about my problems and I've been given a personalised plan of treatment and exercises straight away. I've been checked vertebra by vertebra and rettified my posture, basically if there is a problem she will find out and I've never been so happy with my back, my problems they're gone and my posture is the best ever. I can't thank dott. Burcu enough even if an emergency occurred she has been always available and makes me feel safe.
Not the last the ladies on reception are the kindest ever. The clinic service is a 5 star ???? all round. Thank you ???? ???? ????????
