What if chronic pain isn’t a tissue problem — but how the body interprets it?
If you work with chronic pain, this episode challenges how we frame the problem – and why that matters for recovery.
In this episode of Bench to Bedside Rehabilitation, we explore the role of Occupational Therapy in chronic pain management.
What you’ll learn
- Why chronic pain isn’t just about tissue damage
- The role of perception and interpretation in pain
- How Occupational Therapy reframes daily function
- What this means for interdisciplinary rehabilitation
Clinical relevance
Especially useful for:
- Occupational therapists working with persistent pain
- Physiotherapists in multidisciplinary teams
- Clinicians wanting to broaden their pain framework
Take-home message
Chronic pain is less about what’s wrong with the body — and more about how the body makes sense of it. That changes everything.
