Pain clinic at Exeter Hospital

Take control of your pain with the help of our pain management experts

If you’ve been taking painkillers for a long time, it’s likely they are no longer proving as effective in managing your pain or are causing unwanted side effects. At Nuffield Health, we take a holistic approach to dealing with your pain, focussing on you, the individual.

At your first consultation, your pain management consultant will go through every aspect of your problem and its effects on your daily life. From there, we can then prescribe a course of treatment or combination of treatments to help relieve your symptoms and take control of managing your pain.

Successful treatments we provide include:

• Injections
• Radiofrequency therapy
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Physiotherapy

With the use of treatment and expert advice from your dedicated consultant, we can create you a self-management plan that will offer you all the tools to help you manage your pain at home.

Problems that we can treat:

• Back pain
• Sciatica
• Inoperable cervical and lumbar disc problems
• Neck pain
• Joint pain
• Muscle and soft tissue pain
• Pain from nerve damage
• Shingles
• Fibromyalgia
• Post-operative pain
• Sports injuries
• Worries about the use of pain medication
