Do you suffer from pain?

You are not alone. It is estimated that more than 3 million Australians suffer from chronic pain and many more from intermittent or acute episodes of pain. Less commonly discussed is how pain affects your daily life. How pain affects your moods, how pain drains energy and how the lack of sleep or lack of mobility can get you down.

Our Treatments for Pain

At Maitland Wellness Centre our Therapist are qualified in a range of modalities that can be used to relieve pain.

Pain is a hidden problem

Pain can be debilitating both physically and emotionally yet it is also a hidden problem. It is not visible to others and many people are left to suffer in silence. Living with pain wears you down and often leads to less resistance to life’s ups and downs and increased emotional and financial stress.

Pain relief treatments

When most people think of Acupuncture or Massage they think of pain relief, less tension, less aches and pain. At Maitland Wellness Centre our therapists have many years of experience dealing with pain in its many individual forms and manifestations. A short phone call or email will allow us to match you with the therapist that has the most experience and training relevant to your specific problems.
