Australian Pain Management Association
The Australian Pain Management Association Ltd (APMA) is a health promotion charity providing collective advocacy, information and practical support for people living with persistent pain and their carers and families. APMA is the consumer health organisation for all Australians who live with pain. We support evidence based approaches and a multidisciplinary approach to pain management. We help people develop self-management skills under the social aspect of biopsychosocial support.
We are consumer led and 95% of our volunteers have a lived experience of chronic pain. We offer pain support groups, a peer supported Pain Link Helpline 1300 340 357 and free membership to those impacted by persistent pain.
