What works when pain persists?

Pain is always multifaceted, emerging from the interplay of various biopsychosocial factors. Evidence shows that the words we use, the way that we educate, and the expectations we impose on people with persisting pain can all impact outcomes. This session reviews pain science, and provides rationale for using language and technology that supports realistic outcomes, including our ability to influence pain, recover greater ease of movement and return to function.
