#7 - Pulling apart persistent pain with Dr. Bronnie Thompson
On today's episode we talked about persistent pain with Dr. Bronnie Lennox Thompson. She initially trained as an occupational therapist, but later got a degree in psychology. She has spent her career helping people with persistent pain live better lives. We explore ideas around helping people find meaning with their pain rather than eliminating it. We also covered the best questions to ask patients to help them understand their lived experience and how to not become over reliant on basic exercises for patients.
