Congratulations to Prof. Hegarty (President of WIP and Clinical director of Pain Relief Ireland) on hosting the 7th WIP Symposium, Workshop & Examination held National Taiwan University Medical College, Taipei, Taiwan (January 2025)

Pain Relief Ireland wants to wish all our patients and their families the very best for the 2025.

We will be closed from Monday 23rd December 2024 to Monday 6th January 2025. Any issues during this period you are advised to discuss it with a GP or attend an emergency department nearest you.

Please do remember to continue with you pain management routine over the Christmas break, ensure you pace yourself and get enough rest.

We are looking forward to working with you to improve your quality of life in 2025.

Laura, a nurse, wife, and mother of 3, was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2017 at age 38. She made a great recovery following major surgery—except for lingering pain in her hip and back.

“I tried everything to help myself.” However, acupuncture, physiotherapy, prescription medications, and injections didn’t give her any lasting relief. Her daily pain level averaged 7-8, and she soon needed a crutch to walk.

Pain Relief Ireland was delighted to be a finalist in the “Most Transformative Use of Information Technology” at the National Health Tech Awards in Dublin’s Shelbourne Hotel.
