What It Is
Pain Coaching at Courtyard Clinic Malmesbury helps you manage persistent or recurring pain using evidence-based strategies that address both body and mind. Instead of only treating the site of discomfort, pain coaching explores how physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors interact. Our coach helps you understand your pain, calm the nervous system, and rebuild trust in your body’s movement, using education, relaxation, and gentle reconditioning techniques.
Common situations
- Long-term pain that has not fully resolved with medical treatment
- Conditions such as back pain, neck pain, arthritis, or fibromyalgia
- Flare-ups of persistent pain that interfere with work, exercise, or home life
- People who feel “stuck” in a cycle of pain, worry, and reduced activity
- Stress, anxiety, or sleep problems linked with pain
What to expect
Your first session begins with an open conversation about your experience of pain — when it started, how it affects your life, and what you’ve tried so far. Together, we develop a plan focused on progress rather than perfection. Sessions may include guided breathing, mindfulness, pacing strategies, and movement practice designed to reduce sensitivity and restore confidence. You’ll learn practical tools to manage flare-ups and gradually expand your comfort zone.
Other services that can support your treatment
Pain coaching often works well alongside physiotherapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, and the Alexander Technique. Our multidisciplinary approach at Courtyard Clinic Malmesbury ensures you receive both physical and psychological support, helping you live more freely and comfortably.
