Pain Science, 运动, and Manual Therapy (PSMMT) for Rehabilitation Professionals

课程背景:

Research on the science of pain spanning the past three decades has changed the way we understand and teach patients about the human pain experience. This educational evolution is built on a biopsychosocial framework and its application has resulted in improvements of clinical outcomes including: decreased pain, 减少对移动的恐惧, 推动优质运动, increased motivation and willingness of patients to participate in exercise and skilled therapy, 减少医疗服务的过度使用. 此外, these improvements have been shown to be greater when combined with 运动 and manual therapy. Cornerstone to this educational approach is recognizing the role of threatening (nocebo) language in worsening patient outcomes and iatrogenic disorders. 与疼痛科学的发展同步, 运动科学 has increasingly recognized the interplay of biopsychosocial factors in human 运动. Advancements in research on biomechanics and motor control have also revealed an increased need for clinicians to recognize and understand the complex layers of the lived human experience as playing important roles in assessment and prescription of 运动.

课程描述:
