Course Description:

The clinical landscape regarding the management of persistent pain has changed. We know that persistent pain is a real problem, many people can’t access help for it and for those that can there are many challenges faced by clinicians and people living with pain.
A significant shift in the way clinicians interact and engage with their patients has evolved since the release of Pain Neuroscience Education texts and courses. For clinicians working in pain management our behaviour is of significant importance when engaging in dialogue. Understanding why a person living with pain behaves in the way they do and working with them in a collaborative, shared-decision making manner can provide memorable and invigorating gains for both parties.

Course Content

Rehab Pain focuses on two major components that are lacking in the delivery of pain management – understanding pain behaviour and clinician behaviour when working with people living with pain . This course will explore some of the shortcomings of biomedical treatment, pain behaviour, biobehavioural physiology, practical application of graded activity and graded exposure with a values based approach, reasoning and critical thinking skills using a variety of role play examples including CRPS, LBP and complex physiological presentations. By the end of the course clinicians will aim to a better understanding of the following areas:

Building a therapeutic relationship
Understanding and reducing perceived threat
Facilitate a reconceptualisation of beliefs and somatic experience
Gain an understanding of the plastic effects of neurophysiology and the impact of exercise
Foster self-efficacy in their patients.

In order to engage with people living with pain we must understand why people behave the way they do, adapting our behaviour accordingly.
