How To Incorporate Novel Pain Science Concepts Into Clinical Practice

CE Hours 3 3 Pain Management

About this live event

Wish you could empower people with chronic pain to move towards more meaningful lifestyles beyond the limitations imposed by pain? Are you tired of watching your patients stay locked into pain cycles that prevent them from embracing a higher quality of life? Explore how chronic pain traps people in a downward spiral of fear avoidance behaviors, health provider shopping, endless pill popping, disability, isolation and depression. Uncover how the traditional medical model of treating only physical symptoms without addressing underlying biopsychosocial issues fails to provide lasting change in cases of chronic pain. Adopt transformational interventions into your current rehab plans to endorse positive coping mechanisms that build resilience for optimal pain management with less deleterious side effects. Develop strategies to impact pain perception in a novel way using an educational approach that embraces neuroplasticity to encourage people to move beyond the hurt and fear. Enhance your patients’ knowledge of how pain works. Employ multiple tips and tricks to mitigate pain intensity and disability, improve mood, anxiety and sleep, and promote performance. Provide tools to boost participation in meaningful activities from ADL to work and recreation for measurable outcomes and more smiles in life!

Learning Objectives

Describe the neuroscience of pain perception in a manner patients can comprehend, challenging maladaptive perceptions using metaphors and stories to simplify the science of neuroplasticity.
Explain how the nervous system may respond to pain signals by becoming hypersensitive to threats, creating a pain cycle that entraps people into fear avoidance behaviors, catastrophizing, and disability.
Describe to people how to accept responsibility for becoming more engaged in their recovery by utilizing active strategies based on cognitive behavioral therapy, graded exercise, pacing, and mindful relaxation interventions to ease tension and pain.
Differentiate between pathology vs function to maximize recovery and encourage people to return to doing more of the activities that create a meaningful quality of life.
