Course Description:
Pain is a normal part of human existence: Everyone experiences it, but not everyone experiences it in the same way. Cultural differences, upbringing and gender can play a role in how pain is perceived by patients. Clinicians need to understand how underlying psychosocial factors, poor coping mechanisms, and faulty perceptions about pain affect prognosis and treatment. This course will explore the bio-psycho-social aspects of pain, with particular attention given to the psychosocial aspects of pain. Getting a handle on pain peculiarities will equip therapists to point their treatment plans in a direction that fosters meaningful change in the lives of their patients.
