About Richmond
Chronic Pain Specialist, Physiotherapist, pioneer of Pain Coaching for chronic pain, Humanitarian, Lecturer, Author and Podcast host
I have worked in healthcare for over 30 years, with a unique background in adult nursing, rehabilitation, sport science, coaching, physiotherapy and pain science.
Having had an interest in pain from the start, I pioneered Pain Coaching (read here) as an approach to help people understand, manage, ease and overcome chronic pain and illness.
I continue to develop Pain Coaching, as well as teaching and training healthcare professionals and students on chronic pain. This includes the MSc in Sports Medicine at QMUL and humanitarian work with Medical Aid for Palestinians in Gaza.
My clinical work is with people suffering chronic pain who are stuck and want their pain to get better, from all backgrounds and for a wide range of reasons.
My purpose is to bring the latest understanding of the lived experience of chronic pain to indivivuals and society so that we can ease suffering.
‘Understand and overcome your chronic pain ~ the comprehensive guide to chronic pain and how you can shape a positive future’, the book I have written based upon my day to day work, is out on December 1. You can pre-order yours here.
Outside of the clinic I am found watching my kids play sport, running on the South Downs, writing, reading, going to gigs and playing my guitar 🏑🏃🏻♂️🎸.

Relaxed conversations with people making a positive contribution
Richmond Stace is my go-to clinician for any person in pain, and he’s completely re-shaped the way I think about pain as a Doctor. He’s guided the recovery and empowerment of so many of my patients who’ve trapped for years by the way that their pain had made them think, feel and move.
The most amazing part is that it’s all based on awesome science – yet he makes the process so ‘human’.
He’s an inspiring speaker and coach, and a day spent learning from him is likely the be the best day of education you’ll ever have.
Richmond Stace really helped me and more importantly empowered me to get out of a hole! His holistic approach, with no stone left unturned, got me to see clearly where I was and provided me with the tool box not only to get fit again but hopefully to stay healthy.
I’d had a year of plantar fasciitis and other on-going chronic injuries before I turned to Richmond. With a range of mental and physical techniques, he helped me to heal and get back on track with my running. We worked really hard at integrating a support system of exercises into my daily life that underpin my running and give me the confidence and strength to run long and hard again.
If you’re looking for a slightly different approach from the norm that really does work – look no further!
