Nerve pain, or neuropathic pain, occurs when the nerves that carry signals from the body to the brain are damaged or dysfunctional. This type of pain can feel like burning, shooting, or stabbing sensations, and it often persists even in the absence of injury or external cause. Conditions like diabetes, infections, or injuries can lead to nerve pain.
Physiotherapy offers a range of treatments to manage nerve pain by improving mobility, reducing pain, and addressing the underlying issues. Our goal is to help you regain control over your daily activities and improve your quality of life.
Physiotherapy is a critical component in managing nerve pain. Our physiotherapists develop personalized treatment plans aimed at relieving pain, restoring function, and preventing future flare-ups. Treatments may include gentle exercises, manual therapy, and nerve mobilization techniques that focus on reducing nerve sensitivity and improving movement.

Here are some common questions about nerve pain:
Nerve pain can be caused by a variety of conditions, including diabetes, injuries, infections, and conditions like multiple sclerosis. Sometimes, nerve pain arises without a clear cause.
Physiotherapy can help manage nerve pain through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and nerve mobilization techniques. These methods aim to improve nerve function, reduce sensitivity, and restore normal movement.
Your physiotherapy session will be tailored to your specific needs. The therapist may use manual therapy, nerve stretches, and strengthening exercises to reduce pain and improve mobility. Regular follow-ups will ensure continued progress.
Recovery from nerve pain varies depending on the underlying cause and the individual's response to treatment. Physiotherapy can help reduce pain and improve function over several weeks, but long-term management may be necessary for chronic conditions.
