Chronic Pain Management in Kilmarnock & Ayrshire
At Robertson Physiotherapy, we understand that living with chronic pain can affect every aspect of your life. Whether it’s persistent back pain, joint discomfort, or post-injury complications, chronic pain can limit your mobility, disrupt your daily routine, and reduce your quality of life.
Our specialised chronic pain management services, available in Kilmarnock and across Ayrshire, are designed to help you regain control. By combining effective therapies, personalised exercises, and expert advice, we work with you to reduce discomfort, restore functionality, and improve your overall well-being.
What Is Chronic Pain?
Chronic pain is defined as pain that persists for three months or longer, even after the initial cause has been treated or resolved. Common causes of chronic pain include:
- Arthritis or joint inflammation
- Back and neck pain
- Fibromyalgia or widespread muscle pain
- Post-Surgical Pain
- Sports or Work-Related Injuries
- Nerve Pain, such as sciatica
Unlike acute pain, which serves as the body’s natural response to injury, chronic pain often lingers and requires a more comprehensive approach to manage effectively.
How We Manage Chronic Pain
At Robertson Physiotherapy, we take a holistic approach to chronic pain management, focusing on both the physical and emotional aspects of pain. Our services include:
1. Comprehensive Assessment
We begin by evaluating the source of your pain, your medical history, and how the pain affects your daily activities. This detailed understanding allows us to create a personalised treatment plan.
2. Hands-On Therapy
Techniques like soft tissue therapy, joint mobilisation, and massage help reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and alleviate pain.
3. Personalised Exercise Programs
We design gentle, effective exercises that strengthen weak muscles, improve mobility, and reduce strain on painful areas.
4. Pain Education
Understanding how chronic pain works can help you regain confidence in your body. We provide guidance on how to manage pain through lifestyle changes and self-care strategies.
5. Stress Management and Relaxation Techniques
Chronic pain is often linked to stress and tension. We integrate relaxation techniques into your treatment plan to help ease both physical and emotional discomfort.
