Find a Certified Neuroplastic Pain Recovery Practitioner

Neuroplastic pain refers to persistent pain that is real and distressing, but is primarily driven by a sensitised nervous system rather than ongoing tissue damage. This pattern is often considered when scans or tests do not fully explain symptoms, or when pain continues long after an injury has healed.

What Neurowaze is

Neurowaze is a directory of SIRPA-certified neuroplastic pain recovery practitioners. It exists to help people locate practitioners who use neuroplastic and mind-body approaches for persistent pain, and to understand what training and scope those practitioners have.

Neurowaze does not provide medical diagnosis or treatment. It provides education and directory access so individuals can make informed decisions alongside appropriate medical care.

Practitioner standards and certification

  • Practitioners listed on Neurowaze are required to hold SIRPA certification.
  • Certification and professional background are reviewed before a practitioner is approved for inclusion.
  • Practitioners must clearly state their scope of practice and the types of clients they are suitable for.
  • Medical diagnosis, promises of cure, or discouraging medical care for red-flag symptoms are not permitted.

Practitioner profiles show training, approach, and session format so individuals can assess fit before making contact.

Conditions people commonly seek support for

  • Chronic back pain
  • Sciatica and persistent nerve-related pain
  • Chronic neck or shoulder pain
  • Persistent pain with normal or inconclusive imaging
  • Widespread or fibromyalgia-type symptoms
  • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
