SIRPA CPD Courses: Supporting Recovery from Chronic Pain and Neuroplastic Symptoms
Provider: SIRPA (Stress Illness Recovery Practitioners' Association)
Format: Flexible online learning | Self-paced | Ongoing access
Are you working with patients experiencing persistent pain, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, functional symptoms, or other long-term conditions where physical findings do not fully explain ongoing symptoms?
SIRPA's evidence-based, trauma-informed CPD courses help physiotherapists and other health professionals develop a deeper understanding of chronic pain and neuroplastic symptoms. The training equips clinicians to identify red flags, recognise when further investigation or referral is required, and confidently rule in neuroplastic presentations, enabling them to safely integrate effective, evidence-based approaches within their existing scope of practice.
Drawing on contemporary pain science, SIRPA's training is informed by a range of evidence-based approaches, including Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET), pain reprocessing, nervous system regulation, somatic approaches, and other emotional awareness work, all integrated within a comprehensive whole-person framework. The courses explore the interplay between the brain, body, emotions, behaviour and lived experience, helping clinicians develop the knowledge and skills to support people living with persistent pain and other neuroplastic symptoms.
The training pathway consists of three levels, enabling practitioners to build knowledge and confidence progressively. Courses are delivered entirely online and can be completed in your own time, from any location, with no deadlines and ongoing access to learning materials.
As well as comprehensive training, participants gain access to SIRPA's supportive professional community, providing opportunities for peer support, supervision, continuing professional development, and connection with like-minded clinicians who are passionate about improving outcomes for people living with chronic pain and other persistent symptoms.
Whether you are new to mind-body approaches or looking to expand your existing knowledge, SIRPA's courses provide practical, evidence-based tools to help patients move beyond symptom management and towards recovery.
