Everyone has had to deal with pain at some point in their lives. This is because it is a universal bodily response. Chronic pain develops when pain persists after 3-6 months.

Whether you experience pain from a sports injury or a fall at your workplace, we have a safe, non-invasive and effective solution for your recovery.
According to statistics, a large percentage of the global population suffers from various types of chronic pain. The majority of people complain of persistent back pain as a result of these factors. Our physiotherapy and chiropractic clinic has over 10 years of experience in helping people manage pain and live a sustainable, pain-free life.
Chronic pain can be defined as pain that has persisted for more than two months. Even though it is not bad enough to drastically affect your health, it can still lead to other things, such as reduced functional ability, physical decline, and even emotional stress.
Pain can be termed as chronic when it has already exceeded the normal tissue healing process, and there is no remaining evidence that the tissue with the pain is damaged. It can even develop into a problem for the Central Nervous System.
There are different types of chronic conditions. For example, there is hyperplasia, which generally translates to a heightened or exaggerated sensitivity to pain. Others include allodynia (the body being sensitive to a pain response of non-pain stimulus) and dysesthesia (the body reacting as a response to irregular, abnormal sensations).
