Burns

Burns can result in particular patterns of pain and changes in body self image for years after the experience. Some burns victims experience some symptoms of posttraumatic stress due to the cause of the burns and can also become very socially isolated or self conscious.

Our clinicians will seek to formulate a program with the patient designed to maximise the best possible outcomes.

A useful New Zealand web link is the burns support group in Waikato:

Possibly one of the best international web sites is the surviving burns support services at:
