What is pain medicine?
Pain is a complex and sometimes debilitating condition that can have a major impact on your physical and mental wellbeing. At The Wesley Hospital, our Brisbane pain specialists work with you to deliver a treatment plan to relieve, reduce or manage your pain and help restore your quality of life.
Our pain management specialists work to help you meet the challenges associated with the debilitating effects of both acute and chronic pain conditions. Acute pain could occur after an operation or after trauma, while chronic pain is seen in every age group and across all medical disciplines.
The Wesley Pain and Spine Centre also runs a pain management and rehabilitation program for patients with particular difficulty in overcoming the long-term effects of pain.
