Your Pain Playbook – Effective daily strategies for life beyond pain.
“Helen is a highly skilled and insightful clinician whose understanding of persistent pain and how it impacts on every aspect of people’s lives is second to none. This book is your first step to reclaiming your life, despite pain.” – Professor Romy Parker (Director Pain Management Unit, University of Cape Town, Groote Schuur Hospital. IASP Council member.)
Chronic pain can be difficult to understand and challenging to live with. Like many others, you may be searching for effective pain management strategies besides surgery and pills. Strategies that bring lasting relief.
In this playbook I bring my clinical experience, compassion and creativity together to guide you in managing your pain yourself.
I have used an easy-to-read writing style, beautifully illustrated stories, practical examples and suggestions for expert support; to take some of the “work” out of the usual pain management “workbooks”. Your Pain Playbook empowers you by translating the latest pain science and evidence-backed strategies into simple daily habits that fit YOU and your unique lifestyle.
As you follow the day-by-day plan over 6 weeks, you will begin to understand your pain, sleep better, move more, manage stress, pace yourself and be more fully present. Ultimately, you will find yourself living a different life – a life beyond pain.

Fibromyalgia - the latest science and strategies.
I’m so aware of the lack of reliable information about Fibromyalgia online – so I wanted to create something specifically for those living with the condition.
This video presentation hosted by The OT Link platform is based on what I have learned over a number of years from post-graduate studies in pain science and the stories of my clients and friends living with Fibromyalgia.
It’s a 1-hour presentation at a reasonable fee that covers:
– the FAQs about Fibromyalgia
– the science behind our current understanding of Fibromyalgia
– 5 key strategies that form part of a lifestyle of self-managing Fibromyalgia.
You can follow the button below to find the presentation.
Fibromyalgia support group.
I co-facilitate a free Fibromyalgia support group with a person living with the condition. The group aims to be informative within a supportive atmosphere.
Those diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and their immediate family members are welcome!
We meet in the upper highway area outside of Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, every 6 weeks on a Saturday afternoon.
Contact me to find out about our next meeting!
