Education about pain
“Evidence shows that patients who better understand their pain, and what pain truly is, experience less pain, have less fear, move better, exercise more and can regain hope.” Adriaan Louw and Emilio Puentedura.
We have introduced “Therapeutic Neuroscience Education’ into our practise because patients with pain wants to know:
– Why do I hurt?
– How long before I feel better?
– How much will it cost?
– What can I do to help?
Patients with pain want to know more about their pain and not about their anatomy or biomechanics. Therapeutic Neuroscience Education is an integral part of our therapy – for the patient with the most resent to the most long-standing pain.
