    • Pain Care Clinic Workshops

    At Pain Care Clinic we encourage and support clients to help themselves by providing general information about medical conditions and suggestions for exercises and other activities to do in between therapy sessions. These can help to extend the pain-free time between sessions and to reduce the number of therapy sessions needed. They can also help with future well-being and healthy maintenance of recovery.

    As an added extra we also run good value, informative workshops highlighting practical self-help techniques for clients, their friends and family, and other people interested in myofascial release and complementary therapies.

    Workshops are held on Brighton & Hove, and in London.
