Persistent pain in the performing arts
Manage episode 319697878 series 2979489
This is a recording of an online talk -- essentially me, on my own, talking to my computer :)
Persistent pain is a problem in the performing arts. Many performers are affected, meaning that clinicians need to understand pain in order to be helpful and guide them onwards and successfully.
It starts by knowing thyself as a clinician. So you may want to grab a pen and paper (old school), as there are some important reflections upon your own starting position.
Then I go into a modern way we can think about pain -- predictive processing and enactivism. It is a very brief introduction, so resources will be made available to deepen your knowledge.
Finally, I get into some practicalities through the Pain Coaching lens -- what is the Pain Coach approach to caring for and helping people achieve their picture of success.
