◆ THE PRACTITIONER

Antony Chun-Sing Lung

BExSci MPhySt · Chronic Pain Investigator

Antony is a Health & Wellness Coach, Functional Medicine Practitioner, and Chronic Pain Investigator - specialising in patients who have seen multiple providers without lasting resolution.

His work is forensic in nature: a systematic audit of the biological, psychological, social, and systemic factors sustaining a patient's pain experience - structured to produce actionable findings that integrate with, rather than replace, the treating team's clinical decisions.

Three-Lens Forensic Audit framework

"For patients who have exhausted conventional pathways, the question is rarely what is the diagnosis - it is what is sustaining the pain. That distinction drives every audit we conduct."

◆ CLINICAL FRAMEWORK

The Three-Lens Forensic Audit

A structured, sequential model examining chronic pain through three interconnected lenses — each revealing different dimensions of what sustains a patient's experience.

LENS 01 · MOVEMENT

Tissue, Load & Sensitivity

Assessed first. Examines pathoanatomical load, pain mechanism and sensitivity phenotype, and protective motor behaviour.

— Pathoanatomical — tissue & structural

— Nociceptive / Neuropathic / Nociplastic (IASP)

— CSI ≥40, painDETECT ≥19 screening

— Protective motor & guarding patterns

LENS 02 · PROTECTION

Psychological, Emotional & Social

Assessed second. Mental, emotional, spiritual, and social dimensions evaluated through a phased stabilise–process–integrate model.

— CFT / ACT / PNE — cognitive processing

— SE / EMDR / IFS — emotional stabilisation

— ACT values / Logotherapy — integration

— EFT / IPT — social & relational

LENS 03 · SYSTEMIC

Biological Modulators & Systems

Assessed third. Six IFM nodes as biological modulators of pain sensitivity, cross-referenced to the Movement Lens phenotype.

— Diet, Gut health & Gut-Brain Axis

— Hormones & HPA Axis

— Immune & Inflammatory

— Metabolic & Mitochondrial

— Lifestyle medicine

◆ CLINICAL REPORTING

What You Receive as the Treating Clinician

All findings are compiled into a structured Forensic Pain Audit Report - formatted for clinical handback, GP correspondence, and specialist co-management.

PART A

A structured intake brief summarising pain history, prior investigations, treatment timeline, and patient goals - provided before the audit commences.

PART B

PART C

Structured clinical recommendations, proposed co-management pathways, and specialist referral priorities - formatted for your direct review.

ONGOING

◆ WHO WE WORK WITH

Patients Suited to Forensic Audit

Designed for cases where standard pathways have not produced resolution - not replacing specialist care, but adding a structured investigative layer.

Seen multiple providers without resolution

Patients who have been thoroughly worked up and remain in persistent pain - where the clinical question has shifted from diagnosis to what is sustaining the experience.

Suspected nociplastic or central sensitisation

Where CSI, painDETECT, and clinical presentation suggest a sensitivity phenotype requiring multi-dimensional assessment beyond structural imaging.

Multi-system involvement

Cases where pain intersects with gastrointestinal, hormonal, immune, or metabolic findings - requiring a cross-system map to guide priority sequencing.

High psychological and social load

Where trauma, mood, social isolation, or spiritual distress appear to be significant drivers - requiring structured assessment before or alongside medical management.
