About
I’m Joe Barry, Specialist Pain Clinician and founder of Somerset Pain Specialist.I specialise in supporting people living with persistent or complex pain, particularly when traditional medical treatments have not provided the improvement they hoped for.Rather than looking at pain as an isolated symptom, I take time to understand the wider picture, including your health, movement, sleep, work, relationships, previous treatment, concerns and the things that matter most to you.My approach brings together modern pain science, rehabilitation, and psychologically informed practice. Together we can develop a clearer understanding of what may be influencing your pain and create a path moving forward.I can also help bring together complex care by liaising with GPs and other healthcare professionals where appropriate.My background is in physiotherapy with postgraduate training in pain management. I currently work within a specialist pain service in Somerset NHS as a specialist pain practitioner, alongside some private and consultancy work.Qualifications* Master of Science, Pain Management, Distinction
* Bachelor of Science with Honours, Physiotherapy, First Class
* Additional training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Compassion Focused approaches and health coaching
