A very special Pain Toolkit workshop for people with long-term back pain

The workshop is for people who live with long-term back pain and want to learn simple back pain self-management skills.

The workshop will be run by two experiencd trainers. Pete Moore Author and Pain Toolkit Trainer & Physiotherapist Katie Knapton.

Pete who has self-managed his back pain for over 25yrs and Katie has nearly 30 years of experience working as a Physiotherapist both in the NHS and private sector

Introduction from Pete (how to book here)

Most people with back pain struggle to manage it. I know how they feel, because I also struggled back in the early 1990's.

It wasn't until I got mayself on a pain management programme in 1996, where I learn't some basic and simple life-long skills to self-manage my back pain, myself.

I still use those skills today and why since 1997, I havent had the need to take any pain medication. I teach this same simple skills on the workshop.

Introduction from Katie...

I have nearly 30 years of working as a Physiotherapist both in the NHS and private sector. I have a wealth of experience and have come across my fair share of persisting pain sufferers.

My goal is to try to help and get the self-management with support message out there and keen to help Pete on his mission. No one should suffer alone and knowledge and support is vital, keen to play a role in changing and empowering the pain patients.

How the workshop works

The back pain workshop is online and 3hrs hours long..but could run on longer

Workshops will only have between 6-8 people, so there is time for people to be interactive with Pete and each other.
