Advice for Pain Sufferers During the Covid-19 Emergency

During the Covid-19 emergency we all want to do what we can to limit the spread of this virus and keep each other safe. I work in the NHS and everyday I witness the hard work and preparation that is happening on our behalf. We have to help the NHS to help us and this means taking Government advice on social distancing, self isolation and shielding very seriously.

Please do not think that this means you have been left alone to suffer unmanaged pain. Surrey Pain Management Services will be available for telephone consultations throughout this difficult period.

A phone consultation will provide:

• • Explanation about your pain.
• • Advice on whether investigations and imaging may be needed.
• • A comprehensive pain medicine review to provide the safest and most effective medication for you.
• • Advice on maintaining health and function.
• • Future treatments that may be possible such as pain relieving injections and acupuncture.

In addition, Surrey Pain Management Services is able to access you to phone/video advice and help for:

• • TENS advice
• • Physiotherapy
• • Osteopathy
• • Sports Therapy
• • Pilates
• • Mindfulness, stress management and relaxation techniques.

This is in association with our trusted providers.

Phone consultations are easy to arrange and covered by your insurance. Self funding patients are also very welcome. Surrey Pain Management Service fees are within the structures and guidelines of all insurance providers.

For an appointment please call 01483 728 246 and speak with Max, our Practice Manager.
