Bio-Psycho-Social approach
Understanding the physical, emotional and lifestyle factors behind your pain.
Pain is complex. We take a whole-person approach to help you understand why and support your recovery in the best possible way.
What is Bio-Psycho-Social approach?
Pain is a complex experience influenced by many factors — not just tissue damage alone.
The Bio-Psycho-Social (BPS) model helps us better understand how physical health, stress, emotions, lifestyle, work, sleep, and social factors may influence pain and recovery.
This modern evidence-informed approach allows us to provide more personalised, patient-centred care.
-
Examples only. Many factors can influence pain and recovery
The Modern Understanding of Pain
"
"Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage."
- International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) -
Pain is not a damage detector. It's a sensitivity alarm from your brain
You can have pain without damage and have damage without pain. Imaging is not always fully able to explain your pain
