Persistent pain is a global epidemic that has a significant economic impact as well as personal burden to those affected. Healthcare professionals are generally underprepared with tending to the many needs of this population, leading to unnecessary and ineffective evaluation and treatment practices. This course presents an up-to-date understanding of how the body’s pain system works and how physical therapy can be an effective intervention. Included will be a review of the anatomy and physiology of pain, the multidimensional needs of this population, evaluation recommendations, outcome measures, and a variety of treatment strategies including metaphors, visual aids, and graded motor imagery.

1. Participants will be able to describe the basic anatomy and physiology of the body’s pain system
2. Participants will be able to classify the key differences between acute, subacute, and persistent pain
