Who we work with

Pain Management

 
Kairos works as an integrated part of the Muscular Skeletal Services, Circle MSK Greenwich. This is an NHS service commissioned by Greenwich CCG. Patients are assessed by MSK practitioners and sent on to Kairos where appropriate.

Referral

GP referral via Circle MSK, specify Kairos as preferred treatmet option.

 
Hard to treat conditions

Kairos can be accessed direct by patients even if their condition doesn't fall within the pain spectrum.

Patients typically seek treatment for conditions such as

sleep disturbances, Chronic Fatigue

degenerative conditions,

anxiety,

post traumatic stress disorder,

support in cancer treatment,

respiratory and vascular disease.

The Kairos GP will judge if we are able to take on someone and liaise with the patient's GP regarding treatment. All patients need to bring a print out of their medical summary including contact details for their GP for the initial assesment.

Patients are asked to contribute financially to the cost of their treatment. Initial consultation: £80, follow ups :£50. Therapy appointments: £35. The charity provides concessions to the degree we can afford. Please discuss when contacting us.
