Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions can SIRPA help with?
SIRPA can help with a wide range of persistent pain and symptom conditions including chronic back pain, fibromyalgia, chronic headaches, IBS, RSI, chronic fatigue, and many others. If you’ve had medical investigations that haven’t found a structural cause for your symptoms, SIRPA may be able to help.
How is SIRPA different from other pain treatments?
SIRPA addresses the root causes of persistent pain by looking at the connection between mind, body, emotions, and lifestyle. Rather than just managing symptoms, we focus on education, emotional processing, and behavioral change to achieve lasting recovery. This approach is backed by current pain science research.
Do I need to stop my current treatment?
No, you don’t need to stop any current treatments. SIRPA can work alongside your existing care. However, we encourage you to discuss the SIRPA approach with your healthcare providers. Many people find they can gradually reduce reliance on medications and other interventions as they recover.
How long does recovery take?
Recovery time varies for each individual. Some people experience significant improvements within weeks, while others may take several months. The key is consistency with the approach and patience with yourself. Most people who fully engage with the SIRPA method see meaningful progress within 3-6 months.
Is there scientific evidence for this approach?
Yes, the SIRPA approach is based on current pain science research and evidence-based practices. Studies on pain neuroscience education, mind-body therapies, and psychophysiological approaches support the methods we use. We stay updated with the latest research and integrate evidence-based practices.
What's the difference between the online programme and seeing a practitioner?
The online programme provides comprehensive education and self-help tools that many people successfully use to recover on their own. Working with a SIRPA practitioner offers personalized guidance, support, and accountability. Some people start with the programme and add practitioner support if needed, while others prefer one-on-one help from the start.
