Explain Pain and The Brain - Seminar by G. Lorimer Moseley

Fri, 12 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0800

Start Date: Friday, February 12, 2010
Description:

Health Education Center, 400 Hawthorne Ave, Oakland, CA 94609

Description

This seminar provides an overview of current thought in pain sciences, with an emphasis on key paradigms and the biological principles and data on which they are based. The seminar draws on knowledge from the basic and clinical sciences and evidence from clinical trials to provide a clear idea of when and where explaining pain can improve the efficacy of treatment. Regardless of your clinical paradigms, really understanding pain is important and affects your outcomes.

His work has been published in numerous scientific journals and he is the author of Painful Yarns: Metaphors stories to help understand the biology of pain and co-author with David Butler of Explain Pain, the key text for patients, clinicians, and educators working to understand clinical application of pain sciences.
