Setter's Pain Relief | Pain Clinic Townsville | Benjamin Setter - 35 Years Private Practice
I opened my first clinic at 19. 35 years later, I still do this work because I still see people walk out with less pain than they walked in with. That's the only part of the job that hasn't changed. I'm Benjamin Setter, Pain Specialist and founder of Setter's Pain Relief in Townsville. Initial consultations are 90 minutes and by personal phone suitability check only. Please complete a brief suitability message bellow with your mobile number, and I'll call you for a 5-minute chat. If we proceed, Power Diary will send you SMS reminders.
About
Pain, whether you describe it as chronic, an ache, soreness or discomfort, can make daily life harder.
At Setter’s Pain Relief in Townsville, Benjamin Setter offers non-invasive, non-pharmaceutical musculoskeletal therapy services. Benjamin opened his first clinic at 19 and has been in practice for 35 years. His studies include high distinctions in anatomy and physiology.
Benjamin provides a 90-minute initial consultation which includes an assessment, discussion of your history and goals, and time for gentle hands-on therapy tailored to how you present on the day. Where appropriate, he may also discuss general self-care strategies and behavioural approaches to support your comfort.
He personally speaks to every new client by phone before booking to understand your situation and to decide if his service may be suitable. He works alongside your existing care team, including your GP, and does not replace medical care.
Practical information: Consultations are 90 minutes and are private billing. We are not HICAPS enabled. At this time private health funds no longer provide rebates for my modality, along with around 30 other natural therapy modalities, so my provider number is not currently active. Receipts can be provided for your own records.
Knowing that this work restores quality of life is the greatest reward. It’s why I do what I do. If you are sitting on the fence about seeking help, I hope reading these beautiful 5-star reviews below gives you the comfort to take that next step.
Appointments are by online booking via Power Diary after your initial phone check. Self-referrals are welcome, and you are also welcome to continue care with your GP and other health practitioners.

35 Years of Pain Relief: My Journey to Becoming Townsville’s Community Pain Specialist
In 2002 I was first named Pain Specialist by the Townsville Sun. Then for my Silver Jubilee – my 25 years – I was honoured with a celebration of the thousands of people I have helped in Townsville and surrounds, and at that celebration I was given the title of Community Pain Specialist. It is a great honour to have received that title, and with much honour and pride I continue to help the people of Townsville.
I opened this place when I was 19, 35 years later I am still doing this incredible work. Even though the clients have changed and the premises have changed and Australia itself has changed, the one thing that hasn’t changed is that people get up from my table with pain relief.
I offer gentle, holistic, no-oils pain relief therapy that looks at your whole body, not just where it hurts. I will need to speak to you personally to understand your pain.
Pain relief is what I do. It is an honour to be your Pain Specialist of Townsville.

I was amazed, after only a few sessions with Ben and I was starting to get some relief from pain, it was weird they hardly seemed to touch me but wow the relief is unreal, I could not believe I was getting relief from pain, over the next 2 weeks I was seeing Ben twice a week and was getting better and better, I have even forgot to take my medication on a number of occasions, I cannot thank him enough, they have given me my life back.

It took about 4 sessions to get my body back to something like my old self and allow me to resume my normal life without discomfort. Since then I have recommended Setters and therapy to many friends, family and work colleagues suffering everything from sore necks and backs, headaches and sore knees and have had many return visits myself.

I went to see Benjamin because I was 10 days overdue with my first baby and wanted to avoid induction. I had been told therapy could help. I have also had back pain for over 10 years, which I have tried everything from yoga to acupuncture to fix. Not only did I go into labour 8 hours after my treatment, my back pain has completely disappeared for the first time. Have already referred two friends since my visit.

Mr Benjamen is extremely skilled. When I first went to see Benjamen I had not felt my legs properly in 3 years due to an unsuccessful back surgery which resulted in nerve damage. After my first treatment I had full feeling return to my legs!! Which for me was nothing short of a miracle I now know to be Therapy. I would like to say a very BIG Thankyou to Benjamin and the team at Setters for their ☆☆☆☆☆ Services & Facilities!!!
