Forces. Dr. Nelson joined the RAAF in 1999 and qualified on the RAAF F-111C in 2003.
He completed the RAAF Fighter Combat Instructor (FCI) course in 2006 and was the
FCI for the RAAF's No. 1 Squadron until he posted to the USAF as the Australian F-15E

tactical implementation of the RAAF's new F/A-18F fighter aircraft. Promoted to
SQNLDR, he became the RAAF EA-18G Project Office Tactical Operations Project
Officer before transitioning to a career in medicine.
Dr. Nelson graduated from Griffith University in 2017 and, after completing his MD and
hospital training, returned to the RAAF as a medical officer in 2021. He qualified as a
fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners after being medically
discharged from the RAAF in 2022. As a veteran and chronic pain sufferer, Dr. Nelson is
passionate about helping veterans manage their conditions and improve their quality of
life with all available therapies.

Australian veterans through fully funded alternative programs for pain
management. Our team of specialists is committed to providing innovative health
solutions tailored to the unique needs of veterans, ensuring a hassle-free and
supportive treatment journey.

### Services

At Calmed Forces, we offer a comprehensive, multi-pronged approach to pain

management designed to address the diverse needs of veterans. Our holistic
programs integrate various specialised services to provide effective and lasting
relief. Each service plays a crucial role in managing pain and improving overall
well-being. Here are the seven key components of our pain management strategy:

1. Health Care Planning

Effective pain management requires a personalised approach. Our health care

planning services involve creating detailed, individualised plans that incorporate
various treatment modalities. This ensures that each veteran receives a
comprehensive and cohesive plan tailored to their specific needs and conditions.

2. Psychology

Pain isn't just physical; it affects the mind and emotions as well. Our psychological
services include counseling and therapy sessions to help veterans cope with the
mental and emotional aspects of chronic pain. Addressing these components can
reduce the perception of pain and improve quality of life.

3. Alternative Therapies

We connect veterans to a wide range of alternative therapies such as acupuncture,

massage, and chiropractic care. These therapies can complement traditional
medical treatments, reduce pain, and promote relaxation and healing without
relying solely on medications.

4. Plant Therapy

Plant-based treatments have shown promise in managing pain and inflammation.

Our plant therapy programs are designed to provide natural pain relief options
tailored to individual needs led by our team of qualified doctors and pain specialists

5. Exercise Physiology

Regular physical activity is crucial for managing pain and maintaining overall
health. Our exercise physiologists design safe and effective exercise programs that
help improve strength, flexibility, and endurance, thereby reducing pain and
preventing further injury.

6. Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy is essential for addressing the physical causes of pain. Our

physiotherapists use targeted techniques and exercises to treat injuries, improve
mobility, and alleviate pain. This hands-on approach is integral to our multi-
pronged pain management strategy.

7. Dieticians

Nutrition plays a vital role in managing pain and promoting healing. Our dieticians
provide dietary advice and plans that support pain management, reduce
inflammation, and enhance overall health. Proper nutrition can make a significant
difference in managing chronic pain conditions.

Why Choose Our Multi-Pronged Approach?

Our holistic, multi-pronged approach to pain management ensures that all aspects
of a veteran's health are considered and addressed. By integrating these seven key
services, we provide a well-rounded and effective pain management program that

being. At Calmed Forces, we are committed to offering compassionate,
comprehensive care tailored to the unique needs of each veteran.
