Acute Pain
Pain that has started recently — often tied to an injury, surgery or new illness. Early, well-targeted intervention can prevent it from becoming chronic.
Book an AssessmentWhether your pain started last week or has been with you for years, we tailor a plan that meets you where you are.
Pain isn’t one thing. The way we treat pain that arrived last week is fundamentally different from how we treat pain that arrived years ago. The first step is honest assessment — the second is a plan that fits.

Pain that has persisted for months — sometimes years. We treat it as the complex, multi-system condition it is, with both medical and lifestyle interventions.
Learn About Chronic PainCall or book online. No GP referral needed. Choose the location most convenient for you — Paola, Gzira or Naxxar.
A thorough review of your pain history, current medications, lifestyle and goals. The doctor identifies the type of pain you're experiencing and what's driving it.
You leave with a written plan — not a single prescription but a coordinated strategy that may include medication, therapy, lifestyle changes and specialist referrals.
Follow-up appointments track your progress and adjust the plan. The goal is to give you the tools to manage your pain — not to make you dependent on the clinic.
Your first consultation takes about an hour. The doctor reviews your full medical history, current medications and pain symptoms. You leave with a written treatment plan tailored to your situation.
No. You can book directly with The Pain Clinic without a GP referral. However, we encourage you to share your treatment plan with your GP for continuity of care.
We offer a multidisciplinary approach including medical cannabis, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen therapy), natural remedies and lifestyle interventions. Your treatment plan is personalised based on your condition.
This varies depending on your condition. Some patients see improvement within a few sessions, while chronic conditions may require ongoing management. After your initial assessment, the doctor will outline a realistic timeline.
Some private health insurance plans may cover consultations. We recommend checking with your provider. We can provide documentation to support insurance claims.
