Don't let Pain or Anxiety Impact your Work and Career

venn diagram for PASC-2.png

Is your health interfering with your work?

  • You love your job

  • You are growing in knowledge and confidence

  • You have found your career you enjoy and looking forward to your future.

 

But sometimes your body may be causing you anxiety. It’s just not feeling like it used to a couple of years ago, or even six months ago. 

Are symptoms you are having affecting the quality of your work and making you anxious?

​

Often, we may ignore some symptoms, they are a discomfort but perhaps not enough to take to the doctor although you might check online.

 

Conditions such as IBS or chronic fatigue syndrome unfortunately can be really sneaky. Symptoms may start with discomfort, or worse can be unpredictable.

 

Then symptoms become a nuisance and begin to slow down or stop your social life as you want to save your energy for your work tomorrow.

 

​

My Chronic Fatigue Story

I remember my first doctors visit about my ‘just discomfort’ symptoms.

 

That year I had been promoted to acting head of the mathematics department at my high school. Unfortunately I succumbed to shingles, though fully recovered.

 

It was several months after the viral infection. My doctor spent some time listening and suggested a diagnosis of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.

 

At that time this condition was very much dismissed by doctors, luckily not my doctor. He said unfortunately he could do nothing to help and there is no recommended treatment.

 

But I left his office with an ongoing invite to come and talk to him anytime.

Neuroplastic Symptoms

​

Conditions which are now recognized as neuroplastic conditions such as chronic fatigue and irritable bowel syndrome can be challenging. They can become a progressive illness that has a growing negative effect on your work and lifestyle.

 

However today you do not have to travel down that negative pathway with symptoms that may: -

​

  1. Lead to difficulties at work, 

  2. have challenges with cognition and memory,  

  3. be unreliable due to fatigue, and a lost vision of your future.

 

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

 

The other neuroplastic condition to impact your work, irritable bowel syndrome can also start with discomfort and difficult to get a diagnosis.

 

It may just be something such as clothes getting tighter particularly as the day goes on and the butterflies in your tummy tend to permanently settle in making everything you do more difficult.

Client Testimonials

Jean was instrumental in getting my central nervous system to a state of calm I hadn't experienced in years.

 

I was living with chronic pain, over four years I had been to every specialist doctor in search of a diagnosis, done every physiotherapy exercise prescribed to me and the pain was only getting more debilitating. 

​

She talked me through how to release emotional blockages so I could move forward from events which I sometimes hadn't thought about in years, but it was clear that my nervous system remembered.

​

I began to have days without pain and over time was able to pinpoint what triggered the pain and what helped to calm it.

Thanks Jean - Fiona

"I came to see Jean after many years of lower back soreness causing neck pain that had me seeing a chiropractor on a fortnightly basis.

 

I had very painful ankles and knees that were sore and tight most mornings and nights.

​​

​After seeing Jean for about two months my knees and ankles were no longer feeling painful.

 

I was visiting my chiropractor only once a month, even they commented about how much looser my back felt.

​

Thanks to Jean I have even been confident enough to join in my work's beach soccer team."

How Neuroplasticity can Treat Chronic Pain

Pain is created by the brain - this is now well known and research shows how we can change our brain.

​

The brain can send pain signals even though there is no longer any tissue danger.

​

Jean offers to explain these new ideas from US and UK that are taking many people out of pain returning to normal lives.

Change is good for you.
