Escape Pain
We are delighted to bring ‘ESCAPE PAIN’ to Dublin. Developed in the UK through the NHS and the health innovation network, this programme is designed to help you (the arthritis sufferer) get back to the things you love. The programme will not ‘cure’ your arthritis or stop you getting joint pain and stiffness, but it will help you manage your symptoms more effectively, enabling you to be more active and functional in every day life.
ESCAPE-pain is a rehabilitation programme for people with chronic joint pain of the knees and/or hips, that integrates educational self-management and coping strategies with an exercise regimen individualised for each participant. It helps people understand their condition, teaches them simple things they can help themselves with, and takes them through a progressive exercise programme so they learn how to cope with pain better.
