What can I expect?

Pain is an individual patient experience, that can be different for everyone. The way clinicians speak to patients about pain can have a huge mental and emotional impact. Tracy discusses the importance of integrating pain research into patient care, including mindful word choice to help patients on their road to recovery. She also makes suggestions about how to interact with patients in a way that facilitates behavior change as part of a treatment plan. 

What You Will Learn:

Upon completion of this webinar participants will be able to: 
  • Understand that their word choice greatly impacts their patients perception of and reaction to pain
  • Integrate concepts of pain science into patient interactions and hands on treatments
  • Maintain consistent patient care that integrates pain science from the initial connection to the completion of patient care
  • Be aware of blindspots in communication habitats that could cause patients to disengage and negate positive therapeutic effects
Learn ways to problem solve a variety of sexual health issues.
Feel comfortable navigating psychosocial nuances while learning practical skills to do so.
