This one-day training course has been designed to help people with arthritis to deal with pain using the principles of self-help. It deals with:
- the anatomy of a joint
- defining the pain cycle
- distinguishing the cause of any pain
- explaining the use of arthritis medications
- use of cognitive methods of pain management
- use of physical methods of pain management.
The course aims to bring about:
- a decrease in pain or perception of pain
- an increase in mobility
- fewer visits to GP or other health care professional.
- less sick leave taken from paid work
- fewer days education missed
- more social events attended
- new interests undertaken
The course is very informal. The trainers have arthritis themselves and so speak from first hand experience.
