Permission To Move
We work closely with leading scientists to translate modern pain research into tools that are useful. We have been focused on this problem for more than 10 years. We understand how difficult it is. We also understand that the problem is too important to remain unsolved.Our tools help people regain control over chronic pain by understanding and changing the systems that produce it. Better knowledge leads to better choices, and better choices improve outcomes. By learning more about pain, you can develop the skills to treat it.

Team
Our mission is to help people recover from pain and return to the things that matter most. We are passionate about making recovery simple, because pain can feel so complex. Over the past decade, we've been privileged to work with thousands of people in our clinic and seen great results, with this success, we recognised our responsibility to share and improve outcomes for as many people as possible. We have worked together to transform what works in the clinic into a book for health professions, online chronic pain treatment and recovery courses, and resources. We're continually refining and improving our ideas to make them as effective as possible.Dave Moen is the founder of Permission To Move and is an innovator in the pain science field having worked together with Professor Lorimer Moseley, a world-renowned clinical scientist and physiotherapist, as part of the Body in Mind research group. Dave is committed to improving outcomes for people with persistent pain. This idea has challenged him to find new ways to do healthcare.
We test and improve our ideas amongst our peers working in the field as well as our colleagues in our clinic Toby Moen, Jack Murphy, James Cosenza, Jack Elsworthy, and Tom Chisholm.
