NEUROSCIENCE OF PAIN: LECTURE SERIES

The Neuroscience of Pain for Physical Therapists This lecture aims to show physical therapy, via a modern understanding of pain, how physical therapy can help patients afflicted with various seemingly disabling pain states. Pain is complex and new paradigms of pain, i.e., neuromatrix, nerve sensitivity, endocrine and immune responses to pain and neuroplasticity has pushed physical therapy to the foreground in the treatment of pain. Physical therapy is uniquely positioned to treat pain, exhibiting various important skill sets such as knowledge of movement, biology, exercise and psychology, let alone the important clinical aspects of time with patients, hands-on treatment, cost-effectiveness and a large workforce. Various common pathologies such as low back pain, whiplash associated disorders, carpal tunnel syndrome, complex regional pain, knee arthroscopy and more will be discussed from a pain perspective to illustrate the vast number of strategies physical therapists have to treat patients affected by pain. (4 hours Sat am)

Upon completion of this course, attendees will:

1. Understand the modern definitions of pain.

2. Gain a greater knowledge of modern neuroscience findings related to pain.

3. Understand the unique skill set physical therapy possess in treating pain through Therapeutic Neuroscience Education and other interventions.

4. Understand the proposed mechanisms behind the neuroscience treatments of pain.

5. Apply the information from the educational session into clinical practice.

How? When? Who and How much? The Clinical Application of Therapeutic Neuroscience Education This lecture, based on the results of a recent systematic review of therapeutic neuroscience education (TNE), aims to help attendees implement neuroscience education into everyday physical therapy practice. The lecture aims to discuss the content, education delivery methods, duration, frequency and integration with movement-based approaches such as exercise, manual therapy, aquatic therapy, etc. The session will include various metaphors, drawings, illustrations and examples which have been shown to powerfully affect patient’s beliefs and attitudes regarding their pain and also discuss patient selection for a TNE approach. Current best-evidence for chronic pain calls for a combination of cognitive therapy and exercise. In recent years there has been an increased interest in cognitive therapy for pain. It is now well established that TNE is very effective in helping decrease pain, fear, catastrophization, disability and limitations on physical tasks and movement. TNE helps patients develop a greater understanding of the biology and physiology of their pain and then to reconceptualize pain. Despite the growing body of evidence for using therapeutic neuroscience to ex-plain pain to patients, there seems to be a lack of information on the clinical application and implementation of this much needed physical therapy treatment. (4 hours Sat pm)

Upon completion of this course, attendees will:

1. Understand the current research findings on the use of Therapeutic Neuroscience Education

2. Gain understanding on the use of metaphors, drawings and the language of using Therapeutic Neuroscience Education in the clinical setting with patients.

3. Review the various barriers to implementing Therapeutic Neuroscience Education with the chronic pain patient.

The Neuroscience of Exercising Pain Away This lecture aims to invigorate therapist treating patients with pain. The first half of the lecture will focus on the mechanisms behind therapeutic exercise and pain, while the second half will cover all the clinical application aspects including dosage, frequency, motivational strategies, pacing and graded exposure and clinical examples. Epidemiological data indicates that approximately one in four Americans experience chronic pain. Patients with persistent pain are often referred to therapy for treatment, usually incorporating therapeutic exercise. Current best-evidence suggests exercise, especially aerobic exercise, is extremely beneficial in treating chronic pain. From a neuroscience perspective, there are a multitude of reasons for the benefit of aerobic exercise for patients in pain, including desensitization of the nervous system, oxygenation of ischemic tissues, changes in the brain and neuroplasticity, changes in endocrine function, sleep, appetite, pain thresholds and more. This lecture is a must for all therapist and assistants aiming to help patients in pain develop healthy movement and exercise habits as part of their recovery from pain and disability. (4 h Sun am)

Upon completion of this course, attendees will:

1. Review the basic neuroscience behind movement and brain plasticity.

2. Discussion current neuroscience research findings related to movement and exercise.

3. Review current best evidence on the use of exercise with chronic pain patients.

4. Understand the various benefits of exercise for homuncular smudging, sleep, endocrine function , and pain threshold changes that happen with pain patients.

5. Be able to clinically apply and explain exercise use to pain patients based on modern neuroscience understanding.

The Business of Chronic Pain for Physical Therapy This lecture will combine two worlds – pain science and business. It is estimated that more than 70 million Americans are affected by some form of chronic pain. This number is ever increasing. This increase of chronic pain is associated with increased utilization of healthcare dollars and added burden on healthcare providers, including physical therapists. Emerging research into neurophysiology and neurobiology of pain clearly shows that movement and bio-psycho-social professions such as physical therapy are ideal to treat these patients. The increase in chronic pain and general dissatisfaction by patients with care provided creates a unique business opportunity for physical therapists. In the first half, attendees will be provided with the increasing evidence how therapy can assist chronic pain patients and what treatments have shown efficacy in managing some of the most challenging patients therapists may encounter in practice. In the second section the business aspect of developing, implementing and marketing such a program. (4 hours Sun pm)

Upon completion of this course, attendees will:

1. Understand the value of creating a more “patient in pain” friendly clinic setting.

2. Understand the business aspect of developing, implementing and marketing for the chronic pain patient.

3. Understand the benefits in patient outcomes through changes in business practices for patients in pain.
