The Pain Relief Centres
Understand which pain mechanisms may be active for you.
Most chronic pain is not one thing. Tissue, nerve and sensitised mechanisms behave differently — and respond to different starting points.
This short assessment is built on the pain-science typology I use in my UK clinical practice. It will give you a personalised map of what may be most active for you and where to go next.
Why understanding the mechanism matters. The UK sees about 3.5 million hospital admissions per year for people aged 75+. Roughly 105,000 of those are NSAID-driven adverse drug reactions — around 288 every single day.1
Knowing which mechanism is most active changes which next step actually helps — and can help you avoid medication that may not be the right answer for your pain type.
Takes 3 minutes. No email needed to see your result.
