Four steps, one price
- 1Self-paced theory learning
Bite-sized training videos you can watch anywhere, at your own pace. By the end you will have a working understanding of the current science behind the approach and how it translates into real-world results.
- 2Live online practical session
One 3.5-hour session where the theory is brought to life, your questions are answered in real time, and you are taught the three-phase practical process. Offered several times a month on weekdays and weekends, morning and evening, across multiple time zones.
- 3Practice and assessment
You begin applying it, and submit a brief client case study. This is a supportive checkpoint rather than a test to pass or fail, and it exists to show you where you would benefit from more guidance.
- 4Practitioner certification
Your OldPain2Go® certificate, along with your profile on the global map of certified practitioners, where people looking for help can find you.

Do these challenges sound familiar?
The professionals we train may come from diverse backgrounds, yet they consistently report facing the same challenges.
- 01
Seeing an increasing number of individuals experiencing pain that persists, fluctuates, or recurs beyond the usual healing period.
- 02
Struggling to identify a clear cause, and suspecting that it is being amplified or sustained by more than physical damage.
- 03
Feeling confused or frustrated when symptoms persist despite investing significant time, skill, and professional expertise.
- 04
Being overwhelmed by the current shift from a purely biomedical perspective to the now widely recognised biopsychosocial model, and unsure how to address the psychological and social factors involved.
If these challenges resonate with you, and you are seeking a practical approach that complements your existing skills, one that directly engages the brain’s natural re-evaluation process to help individuals move beyond the limitations it places on recovery, then this training is for you.

The practical tools
The Practitioner Companion
A practical guide by your side for bringing the refined structure to life, designed to follow the OldPain2Go® 12 Phase Refined Structure, developed with Steven over his last two years, refined and evolved since.
A practical tool for bringing the refined structure to life, in training and well beyond certification. It is called a Companion because that is how it is used: by your side as you follow the OldPain2Go® 12 Phase Refined Structure, a supportive guide to delivering the session, with clear objectives, key prompts and suggested scripts.
Designed to be used alongside the Session Workbook and the key detail that lives in your course, which is what keeps it concise, so it guides you without weighing you down.
What the Companion contains
- A guide through every phase of the refined structure, with a suggested script for each
- Preparation: Review, Reassure, Regulate. The ground that keeps the session intuitive
- Transformation: Reveal, Resolve, Reset. The heart of the work
- Integration: Result, Reframe, Revisit. Landing the change, and measuring impact
- Mission: Research, Refine, Reshape. How each session can turn pain into purpose
- Our thanks to you, a message from the team

The practical tools
The Session Workbook
A reproducible follow-along working resource for every client session, designed to follow the OldPain2Go® 12 Phase Refined Structure.
A practical tool for bringing the refined structure to life, in training and well beyond certification. It is called a Session Workbook because that is how it is used: printable sheets per client that follow the OldPain2Go® 12 Phase Refined Structure, a supportive set of professionally structured forms, key prompts and client handouts for delivering the session.
It follows your client through the whole process: what they fill in before, what they are given to keep, what is recorded in the room, what they consent to, and what comes back to you afterwards. Designed to be used alongside the Practitioner Companion.
What the Workbook contains
- Client Record, started upon initial enquiry
- Pre-Session Form, the client completes it before the session
- Client Take-Home, provided before the session
- In-Session Form, your notes and reflections
- End Session Form, turning pain into purpose
- Client Take-Home, provided after the session
- Revisit Chat Form, explore changes, measure impact

Your live session
Your live online practical session
3½ hours, in your time zone
Once your theory is complete, you will be able to join Peter for your live online practical session. He hosts these sessions from the UK, and they are timed so that you can join at a sensible hour, no matter where you are in the world. Several run each month, on weekdays and weekends.
What happens
Everything from your theory learning is brought to life through practical application. The 12 Phase refined structure walked through step-by-step with your questions answered as you go.
Who is in the room
Kept intentionally small and relaxed, where everyone gets involved, sharing different perspectives and learning from each other.
Where it leads
You leave with the confidence to begin applying the techniques. From here you move to practice and assessment, then being awarded your official OldPain2Go® certificate.
The Certified Practitioner Credential
A credential worth framing.
The Credential
What this certificate represents
It marks a practitioner who has completed CPD-accredited training in a structured, science-informed approach: 21+ hours of training, self-paced theory paired with live application sessions, assessed and awarded.
Certification is a milestone. It stands for the work you have put in, and we want that moment to feel special. So, on certifying, you have the option of a premium-grade foil certificate, in light or dark, with a choice of frame colours.
A free printable certificate is presented upon completion of your course. The premium is an optional paid extra.


The new practitioner map
Once certified, you belong on the map.
- One globe, every practitioner. Each certified practitioner has a pin on it and a card anyone can open.
- Your listing comes with certification. Your own pin, your own card, and your latest certification shown on it.
- The map brings people to you: someone nearby searches, finds your card, and emails or calls you from it.
Coming soon
What happens beyond certification?
It is with real excitement that we share with you that we are at the beginning of a series of updates,
which started with 'Keystone'. The next to arrive is 'Horizons', which opens the next chapter.
Your certification is where it starts, not where it ends. You qualify into a community that keeps backing you, and Horizons is where that really opens up.
Your development carries on
Masterclasses, where a real session of yours is reviewed by experienced practitioners and given back to you moment by moment: what worked, where you drifted, what to do next time. A library of other practitioners' reviewed sessions, CPD accredited, so you see the work delivered in many ways, with many different people. Milestone Awards that mark how far you have taken it, Bronze through to Platinum.
Your practice gets practical help too
Your own page on the practitioner map, so clients can find you. Fresh brand assets for your own marketing. And the business support tools: a website of your own, online booking, taking payments, client records and forms, with business and technical help behind it. So more of your time goes on the people in front of you.
Horizons also opens the door to mutually beneficial deeper collaboration for anyone who wants it, all designed to help reshape the future of pain care alongside the wider field.
The Practitioner Advisory Group
Where practitioners current on the training help shape our direction. You see what is coming before anyone else. You are asked before a decision rather than shown after it. And you are named when something you suggested is taken up.
The Ambassador Programme
Where practitioners carry the torch alongside us, we invest in their development, and they gain increased visibility and reach. A programme with a real mission: their own sessions run through our Release & Research Programme, gathering the recorded results that provide the research to refine our approach and strengthen the case for it.
Becoming a Trainer
These deeper relationships open the door to it: leading the live practical for new practitioners in your own language and part of the world, and being paid for every practitioner you train.

Success stories
One of the most inspiring aspects of our work is sharing success stories from individuals and professionals around the world.
These real-world results highlight the remarkable outcomes that can emerge when science and practical application come together. As a practitioner, this is what OldPain2Go® training prepares you to do in your own practice: help guide people back to the lives they want.
Before you start
Frequently asked questions
How long is the training, and how is it split?
21 hours in total: 17.5 hours of flexible, self-paced theory you can start immediately, including one accessible 3.5-hour live online session focused on practical application.
When do the live sessions run, and will one suit my time zone?
Dates and times for the live session are provided once you have completed the self-paced theory modules. There are options to attend several times each month, on both weekdays and weekends, and the sessions are accessible across multiple time zones.
Is there an exam I could fail?
No. Assessment is integrated naturally into the practice stage rather than sitting at the end of it. Rather than a test to pass or fail, it is a supportive checkpoint, helping you identify areas for additional guidance and making sure you feel fully prepared to move forward.
What do I receive when I certify?
Your official OldPain2Go® certificate, your practitioner profile on our interactive global map, along with exclusive access to the practitioner Facebook group.
Is £599 the whole cost?
Yes. It is an all inclusive price, processed in GBP. Your certificate is included, ready to download straight away. The framed premium edition is ordered separately, for anyone who would like it on the wall.
What happens straight after I pay?
You receive a welcome email with your login details to access your course, where your journey officially begins. You start the theory modules at your own pace, and once you have completed them we send you a list of upcoming live sessions so you can choose the date that works best for you.
Still have a question?
Book a free chat about the training. It is there for any question at all, and you can have it as a group session or one to one, whichever suits you better.

The science
At the leading edge of pain science
Steven Blake and Peter Dennis at the 2024 IASP World Congress on Pain, Amsterdam.
In 2024 OldPain2Go exhibited at the International Association for the Study of Pain’s World Congress, which marked fifty years of progress in pain science and brought together over 3,500 scientists, clinicians and healthcare professionals from around the world.
An initial feasibility study of the approach, by Teesside University, Newcastle University and the Norton Physiotherapy Centre, has been completed and published in Pain and Rehabilitation, the journal of the Physiotherapy Pain Association. A randomised, double-blind controlled trial is now under way.
A large-scale observational study of 207 individuals is pre-published and under peer review, and long-term outcome studies are planned.
The training’s theory modules teach the current science behind the approach and how it translates into real-world results.
