Description

Pain is one of the most common reasons people visit the doctor, and getting rid of pain is one of the most common goals patients have for physical therapy. Pain is produced in the brain. Pain is a response from irritated tissues that send a nerve signal to the brain, and the brain produces pain. Pain is experienced as a result of an injury or threat and is the brain’s way of saying “danger” or “stop doing that!” Recent research has targeted treating the brain through education to lessen the brain’s perception of threat or danger, thus reducing the pain experience.
