Chronic Pain: How can we support people who live with it? - Part 2
In Part 2 of this series, Grant Hardy digs a bit deeper into what is being done to treat chronic pain, and asks how people living with chronic pain can re-train their brains to lessen the impact of pain on their lives.
Kara Stanley and Simon Paradis, authors of the book The Pain Project, are back to recount the tactics they’ve used to distract Simon’s brain in real-time when he's experiencing pain flare ups.
Dr. Andrea Furlan returns to highlight some of the techniques she is using with her patients who live with chronic pain. She also shares some success stories of people whose lives have completely turned around after treatment. Dr. Furlan is a Physician at Toronto Rehab Hospital, a Scientist at KITE Research Institute – University Health Network Hospital, and Professor of Medicine at University of Toronto. Her YouTube channel provides awareness and education about chronic pain management.
