How does the RESTORE program help a person deal with physical pain?
All ‘RESTORE’ participants have pain that has originated from a physical injury or illness. Recent advances in pain research have provided important understanding about the complexity of pain including how our body and brain produce pain responses. We now understand why pain can persist after tissues have apparently had adequate time to heal. ‘RESTORE’ provides an opportunity to learn about the processes involved in our body’s perception of pain, how to influence these processes and of the ways to improve physical function.
