Pain Reprocessing Therapy

Find freedom from the limitations of chronic pain and lead a joyful life

Do you feel trapped by chronic pain?

I understand, I've been there too. For two years, back, neck, and sciatic pain ruled my life. I desperately sought relief – doctors, PTs, osteopaths, chiropractors, even Ayurveda. Yet, the pain persisted, worse with each passing day.

Frustration turned to hope when I discovered Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) through "The Way Out" by Alan Gordon who, frustrated by his own pain, developed a revolutionary approach. He conducted a study where participants achieved significant pain reduction, many even becoming completely pain-free.

Just like Gordon's participants, I found freedom. Devouring the book, applying the techniques, and with some support, I finally conquered chronic pain. I trained with Gordon's team and am now a certified Pain Reprocessing Therapist, completely pain-free myself.

Imagine moving freely, exercising, doing yoga, hiking, swimming – activities I once thought impossible. Now, I plan for the future without fear, feeling truly liberated.

My deepest wish is to help you achieve the same freedom.

Pain Reprocessing

Therapy

Chronic pain holding you back? You're not alone.

Countless people struggle with chronic pain, a constant battle invisible to others. It can feel isolating, leaving you questioning your future and ability to live life to the fullest.

But here's the truth: You don't have to accept pain as your reality. There is hope for healing, and you have the power to reclaim your life.

I understand your frustration. You've tried countless solutions with minimal results.

Discouragement sets in, leaving you wondering "Will I ever feel better?"

Your pain is invisible to others, and they may not fully grasp the daily challenges you endure. This lack of understanding can reinforce a sense of isolation.

Yet, amidst the worries about the future, there is hope. You may think, "How can I still enjoy life and fulfill my dreams with this pain?" However, it's possible to find joy and meaning, even in the midst of adversity.

While feelings of powerlessness and discouragement are understandable, they need not define your journey.

Despite your efforts, the pain may persist, leading you to wonder, "Nothing works, I have no hope of ever healing." But healing is a process, and every step forward counts.

The symptoms and emotions you experience can make your body seem like an enemy. Anger, sadness, and frustration may accumulate, leaving you uncertain about how to find relief.

The good news is: With the right tools and support, it is possible to experience significant relief from chronic pain. My program utilises a holistic mind-body approach to address the root causes of your suffering, not just the symptoms.

Evidence-based

Approaches

To support you, I utilise evidence-based approaches grounded in the latest pain science research:

Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT): Developed by Dr. Alan Gordon, PRT is a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) approach supported by growing research demonstrating its effectiveness in reducing chronic pain. A 2020 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Psychiatry showed significant and lasting pain reduction for patients with chronic back pain who received PRT, compared to placebo and usual care. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34586357/

Dr. Howard Schubiner's work: Dr. Schubiner, a leading proponent of PRT, emphasizes the connection between the brain and pain perception. His work is based on the neuroscience understanding of neuroplasticity, which is the brain's ability to change and adapt https://www.britannica.com/summary/neuroplasticity.

Mindfulness meditation: Numerous studies, including a 2015 review published in JAMA Internal Medicine, have highlighted the benefits of mindfulness meditation in pain management by promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and improving emotional regulation. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2791710

Hypnotherapy: a 2018 review published in The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews found evidence suggesting its potential effectiveness in managing chronic pain. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30790634/

Recent research in pain science suggests that chronic pain often arises not solely from physical issues but can also be influenced by psychological factors like thoughts, feelings, and beliefs. A 2015 review published in Nature Reviews Neuroscience concluded that "pain is not simply a sensory experience, but rather a complex output of the nervous system that is influenced by a variety of factors, including sensory, affective, and cognitive processes." https://www.nature.com/articles/nn.3644

By incorporating these evidence-based approaches, my support aims to address the multifaceted nature of chronic pain and empower you to take an active role in your recovery journey.

Testimonials

“Thank you for the quality of your support and for helping me move forward during that time. Your belief in my abilities gave me the confidence to progress, even when I was held back by my fears. I can’t thank you enough for being a steady source of encouragement.”

“It is quite amazing how the therapy works! Jean is clearly a very knowledgeable and compassionate therapist who always put me at ease. I would highly recommend Jean to anyone suffering from chronic pain.”

“Dear Jean, I just want to write to say how beneficial I have found the support you have been giving me over the winter. I genuinely felt better after nearly every session I had with you. Your empathy, patience, and professional knowledge were truly appreciated. What stood out to me the most was your ability to ‘read’ what was needed in each session, rather than following a set ‘script’ or protocol.”

"Before I saw Jean there were times when my pain was so bad I could barely walk. Turning over in bed caused me to cry out loud with the pain. A year of doctors, physiotherapists and chiropractors seemed to make it worse: it wasn’t their fault, seeing them was re-enforcing in my brain that I had a serious bio-mechanical problem.

After eight sessions with Jean my pain is almost gone and, even when it is there, I wouldn’t even call it pain anymore, it’s just a slight sensation for me to work with using the tools I've been given. I am confident that it will continue to dissipate because I know, far more than I did before, why my body speaks to me the way it does; I am learning to listen to its wisdom."

While these testimonials reflect positive experiences, it's important to note that everyone's journey is unique. Each person's response to therapy can vary, and what works for one individual may not work the same way for another. However, I hope that these stories serve as beacons of hope, illustrating the potential for positive change and healing.

Frequently

Asked

Questions

What is Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT)?

PRT is a form of therapy that helps you understand how your brain perceives pain and provides tools to retrain your nervous system to reduce pain signals.

How long does PRT take to work?

The time it takes to experience relief varies depending on the individual and the complexity of their pain. Some clients experience significant improvement within weeks, while others may need more time. However, PRT is designed to be a relatively brief therapy compared to traditional pain management approaches.

I don't have a lot of free time. Will PRT still work for me?

PRT sessions can be tailored to fit your schedule. While consistent effort is key, the program focuses on providing you with tools and techniques you can integrate into your daily life, even with limited free time.

Is there any risk involved with PRT?

PRT is a non-invasive and safe therapy. There are no medications or physical adjustments involved.

What if PRT doesn't work for me?

While PRT has shown promising results, it's not a guaranteed solution for everyone.

While this process is designed to provide effective tools and support, individual results may vary, and I cannot guarantee specific outcomes. However, during our initial consultation, we can discuss your specific situation and determine if PRT is a good fit for you. Additionally, the skills you learn through PRT, such as managing stress, emotions and negative thought patterns, can still be beneficial regardless of pain reduction.

I'm skeptical about alternative therapies. Why should I try PRT?

PRT is grounded in scientific research. Studies have shown its effectiveness in reducing chronic pain. It also offers a different approach compared to traditional methods that may not have been successful for you.

What are the benefits of PRT compared to other pain management options?

PRT focuses on addressing the root cause of pain, not just managing symptoms. It empowers you to take an active role in your recovery and provides tools for long-term pain relief. Additionally, PRT avoids the potential side effects associated with medications or invasive procedures.

What's the next step if I'm interested in learning more?

Contact me today for a free consultation! We can discuss your specific situation and see if PRT is right for you.

How much does PRT cost?

PRT sessions are offered in a structured format. To ensure the most effective results, the minimum recommended length is 8 weeks. The cost for this 8-week program is £800, which can be paid upfront or in two instalments of £400 each or a per-session payment of £100.

*I am committed to making my services accessible to those who may be facing financial difficulties. Therefore, I offer flexible payment options, including the possibility of paying in instalments. This way, we can work together to find a payment plan that suits your situation and makes it more manageable for you.

In addition to that, I provide concessions for individuals with low income. I understand that everyone's circumstances are unique, and I want to ensure that my support is available to those who need it most.
