painaustralia
Health support and information organisation
Pain is an unpleasant feeling, causing a reaction to protect the part that is painful. Everyone who has experienced pain knows what it is, but everyone’s pain is different. Many different factors affect an individual’s experience of pain and the exact contributors to pain are also different between individuals and between situations.
If your organisation cares about people in pain and wants to make a difference, please consider becoming a member of Painaustralia.
Our capacity to influence government policy and improve understanding and management of pain is directly related to the strength of our membership network. Your support could make all the difference.
Painaustralia is the national peak body working to improve the quality of life of people living with pain, their families and carers, and to minimise the social and economic burden of pain.
Our focus is to work with governments, health professional and consumer bodies, funders, educational and research institutions, to facilitate implementation of the National Pain Strategy Australia-wide.
Please note, we are not a medical practice and are unable to give any advice or recommendations on personal cases.
