Description
There have been some amazing pain discoveries over the last 20 years and they have opened up new opportunities for people in pain.
This talk will explain that when pain persists, your body learns pain and becomes over protected, but you can use proven strategies to slowly retrain your pain system to be less protective.
To begin, you need to rethink what pain actually is, what factors contribute to your pain and how you can tailor make your own retraining programme.
