Functional Pain Syndromes (FPS) are a range of conditions that appear to have some common themes in terms of underlying pathophysiology.
Examples include:
- Chronic low back pain
- Migraine
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
- Fibromyalgia
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Abdominal pain
- Temporomandibular joint dysfunction
- Painful bladder syndrome
These conditions are often accompanied by anxiety and depression
Employing our very modern model of care (biopsychosocial) with our extensive knowledge of pain science we offer treatment, education to develop your understanding of the condition and practical strategies to be effective in self-management to optimise quality of life. We work closely with a range of medical and surgical consultants, and together we offer the very best in care for these often complex problems. A multidisciplinary (MDT) approach is often recommended with medicine, physiotherapy and psychology at the heart of the programme.
