The Wonderful World of How & Why We Hurt, Kevin Cuccaro, DO

The Wonderful World of How & Why We Hurt, Kevin Cuccaro, DO

Most healthcare systems, practitioners, and clinics are not up-to-date when it comes to pain science.  Unfortunately, the few that do have an understanding tend to try and overcomplicate what is already a complicated process.

However, pain science can be approachable, understandable, and useful.  It can also, quite literally, transform your practice.  In the past, though, to reach that level required hours and hours of reading and dissecting the science.  Then, if you were lucky, you’d stumble into a few techniques or strategies that were helpful (but never clear why).

It doesn’t need to be this way.

This session presents a pain conceptual model that simplifies how to understand and apply modern pain science in clinical practice using a conceptual model that makes sense of pain (including all those previous scenarios when it didn’t).

Join us to learn how to apply the new Pain Science to our Faith Community Nursing Practice.
