Description

Why does it matter how we think about pain? Join Erin and Michelle as they continue their conversation on why it matters how we think about pain, and how our daily thoughts around pain impact how we feel. This episode includes examples Erin and Michelle have seen in the clinic showing how this information dramatically changes people’s pain experiences. Again, staying curious about pain can help us gain more control and actually have less pain overall!
