The Explain Pain series

The Explain Pain series is a resource designed to help people understand how pain works, especially when it persists beyond an injury or illness. It teaches that pain is a complex process involving the brain, nerves, and body, not just tissue damage. Sometimes, the nervous system becomes more sensitive, making pain feel worse even if the injury has healed. By understanding these processes, individuals can better manage their pain, reduce fear, and engage in appropriate recovery strategies. The series empowers people to view pain as a protective warning, not an indication of ongoing damage, promoting a more positive approach to treatment and healing.
