The effective management of pain is a problem which confronts all
manual therapists. This book provides a clear picture of our
current understanding of pain mechanisms and shows how that
knowledge should inform approaches to treatment. The knowledge of
pain science that the book conveys will help the therapist select
the best approach to the clinical management of each patient.
Different types of pain disorder may require different management
strategies which may involve only one discipline or, at other
times, a multidisciplinary team which may also include medical
clinicians, psychologists, occupational therapists, nurses and
other healthcare practitioners as well as manual therapists. The
book is divided into three parts: An introduction to the concept of
pain and its neurophysiological mechanisms. A review and discussion
of current and potential evidence-based evaluation methods. A
review and discussion of common types of functional pain disorders.
This approach provides readers with a comprehensive reference to
evidence-based information that should enable them to manage their
clients' pain as effectively as possible.
