Pain Coach, available through AIA Embrace, is a personalised program grounded in the latest pain science. The program helps you understand and manage your persistent pain through expert coaching and education – empowering you to reduce pain, improve function, and enhance overall wellbeing.
What is Pain Coach?
How does it work?
Your pain is real – and understanding it is important. Pain Coach helps you make sense of the biological causes of pain, including what is and isn’t related to tissue damage. This knowledge builds safety and confidence to move again. With expert guidance, you’ll create a personalised plan to reduce pain and improve function – giving you the tools you need to take control and move forward with confidence.
How do I participate?
Over 5 telehealth sessions with an exercise physiologist, you will learn how to activate your brain’s natural pain-relief mechanisms and move without unnecessary pharmaceutical interventions. You’ll also learn how stretching, diet and nutrition, sleep, and positive thinking settle your overly protective pain system.
Together, these active strategies and management techniques will help you live better with pain.
