Course Details
What is unique to Explain Pain School?
Explain Pain School is delivered over eight weeks, with two-hour live sessions each week and extensive clinical mentoring; the extended format has been a revelation for deep understanding and flexible clinical application of the Explain Pain approach.
The beauty of this course, all of the sessions are recorded. This means you can join live, catch up later on demand, or simply just watch the session again on replay.
Each session is interactive and gives attendees the opportunity to share experiences and hear from others on the course. You will receive weekly exercises to create experiential learning opportunities to see how applying different elements of the educational process can aid work with your clients. You will be introduced to a wide variety of pain literature with weekly reading.
- The course will be live and delivered via Zoom. Links to the recording and weekly exercises are sent weekly via email.
- NOI’s usual high quality
- Comprehensive teaching materials will be provided
