How physio helps with chronic pain
“Physical therapy for persistent pain can involve manipulation, stretching exercises and pain-relief exercises,” says the NHS.
The national health body continued: “Physical therapy is usually delivered by a physiotherapist, chiropractor or osteopath, or in some cases, an occupational therapist.
“Physiotherapists can give you advice on the right type of exercise and activity.”
“The idea is to follow James' rules before things go wrong."
Describing the treatment he receives he added: “Usually when he's working on my body, it is nothing but pain but I do listen to what James' has to say.
“James's book is about healing, resetting and restoring your body. A lot of people will be suffering pain and it is an awful thing."
