Pain Management Programme

We are pleased to report that Pain Management Programmes are now running (following closure over the Covid period). 

If you have already been seen in the pain service and would like to be considered, please call 0300 303 8063 option 5.


Persistent pain (also sometimes called chronic pain) refers to pain that lasts beyond 3-6 months. Often persistent pain does not resolve with physical or medical treatment. Therefore, other approaches such as Pain Management Programmes can be useful in helping people to move towards living the life that they would like with pain.

Pain Management Programme

After you have completed an assessment with a member of the Persistent Pain Team to understand your current difficulties with pain you may be offered a face-to-face Pain Management Programme (PMP). They will explain details about the PMP so that you can decide if you would like to start a programme.
