Joined Leva to manage her Joint Pain
Denise was diagnosed with chronic joint pain 5 years ago. She joined Leva with a goal to be able to exercise for longer periods without having to stop. When painful it can be difficult to walk and run.
Pain management plan
How we helped Denise.
Medicine
Medical Cannabis
Denise received a full medication review and was able to reduce the pain killers that she was taking. Her clinician also prescribed her a topical medicinal cannabis oil to use on her joints during a flare up to help reduce the pain and stiffness of her joints. She will be reviewed regularly by her clinician to track her progress.
Movement
Bespoke exercises
Her clinician recommended certain stretches and strengthening exercises that Denise could do before she left the house each day. This would help to reinforce the affected joints and improve their stability helping Denise to walk longer distances each day.
Mind
Coaching
Denise spoke to her clinician about being upset and worried that she could no longer go on walks and hikes with her children and how her mobility issues were interfering with her social life. Her clinician listened to her concerns and recommended that Denise take up mindfulness to help clear her head and yoga to help strengthen her joints and relieve stress.

Lovely Leva!
Leva have been my pain management clinic for nearly two years. They have been consistently helpful, friendly and clear. There have been no problems I can recall and they reply very quickly to any contact. Thoroughly recommended and worth every penny for their service. I have no intention of using anyone else for pain management. Keep up the good work Leva!

I was with another clinic which I had…
I was with another clinic which I had many problems with. Since joining Leva around 18 months ago everything changed for the better. The staff and Consultants at Leva certainly put the Patients first and can't do enough to help if any problems arise Prescriptions are at the pharmacy within 48 hrs and Leva keep on top of what stock is available at the pharmacies for the patients. It has changed my life since I joined them, the medication has enabled me to live a more active and pain free life. I personally create Leva very highly.
