This course has been so helpful, I realised that it’s more the fatigue that I struggle with than the pain and feel an increased confidence in being able to manage my symptoms. Breaking it down into bite size chunks has been a great way to make sure I pace myself through it. I’m very grateful to the team for being able to organise this, and especially for making an online self directed version available as I wouldn’t have been able to commit to in person groups. Thank you so much!

I am pleased that I did the course and would definately recommend it to others in my situation. I have learnt to live with my pain and through this course have managed to control the amount of pain I am in through relaxation meditation and regularly doing the exercises. I still have bad days but take time out for them which allows me to carry on. This course has been invaluable.

I'm happy I start this course finding professional people who actually believes you and your situation, and who knows how to give the right support. I found this course very helpful, with clear instructions. Thank you for all of your support, help and understanding.

I was sceptical if I'm honest however it has made some difference. The meditations were and still are incredibly useful. Learning to pace myself has had the most effect and saying no to things. I'd recommend trying out everything in the course as something may work for you.

The course was enjoyable and easy to follow because each step was not too long. I've found most of the course content to be helpful and will continue with the stretches and mindfulness and relaxation techniques. Thank you.

The course really got me thinking about the psychological impact of pain. It thought me that we must think about the pain rationally and that it is important to be positive

If you have never done a pain management course please consider doing one. Any advice they give and support will help you however small to cope with pain and improve your overall well-being.

I feel the assessment and course are not specific enough to establish the support each person needs. Everyone is different and each patient has different capacity in what they are hoping to achieve.

Just don't Do not take this course if you have anything causing pain other than generalised back pain due to normal wear and tear. Some of the exercises suggested are likely to aggravate your pain if you have bulging discs in your back. If you have anything along the lines of Fibromyalgia again this course is not for you. If you have any level of Neurodivergence again this course is unlikely to help. With 20min "meditations" and what they call "passive relaxation" which requires a lot of focus and concentration. In my honest opinion it is anything but passive. I would also avoid this course if you have lived with Chronic pain...sorry "persistent pain" (cos chronic sounds scary...) for any length of time there is a high chance you will find this course patronising and triggering. I hope people do find this course useful but with only 24% of people sayin they experienced a reduction in the problems of daily life that means that 76% of participants experienced no improvement.

I found the course helpful but felt it didn’t reach or help how to improve the pain /ache in my neck and hands which is where it has an impact on my normal everyday life due to muscle and nerves and my sleep patterns HAVEN'T improved either.

This is an excellent course, which has really helped me on the road to managing my head pain. I would recommend it to anyone with chronic pain.

I found the course easy to do as it was broken down into short steps therefore I did not feel overwhelmed by it. It has also given me some confidence in managing my pain better and being able to do more of my interests.
