Through pacing activity and gradual return to activity, we are able to slowly and confidently build your capacity, without increasing your symptoms. We know this journey is a bit rocky so we give you the skills to deal with any future hurdles, through setback planning and providing you with a therapy manual you can turn to in times of need.
Group Programs
Our group programs cover everything above, however follow a slightly different layout.
Our group programs are a blended approach of a group education sessions and individually tailored treatment sessions.
Compared to the above schedule - the Group Program is a structured 14-week program of both group based education sessions, and individual sessions once a month. This is designed to not only give you all of the information your need, but also to gain access to a community of people who understand what you are going through and can help support you along the way.
