I wanted to share a link with you today about an up-coming seminar focused solely on back pain. Unfortunately, the registration to the event is closed since it has reached full capacity. I believe this event was advertised at the end of July 2015, and I’m sorry I missed reporting on it earlier. The event scheduled on 9-13-2015 is still a week away, and it’s already closed! That just tells you how much interest we have in treating back pain, and confirms the fact that back pain is certainly the “number one pain condition in the world”. When you go to the Stanford University Back Pain Education Day web site, it does say that you can view the live-stream of the event from that web page on the date and time listed. So there’s hope for us to still view this event, even if we couldn’t register for it.
In the mean time, check out the article from the site National Pain Report which discusses this up-coming event in more detail.
Back Pain Seminar At Stanford Wants You!
The number one pain condition in the world is back pain.
Want some answers?
The Stanford Center for Back Pain invites you to learn more on Sunday September 13. It begins at 10 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time.
‘While medication can be one helpful component of care, the best way to treat back pain is with a comprehensive approach that involves self-management strategies, movement therapies, behavioral and psychological therapies,’ said Beth Darnall, PhD who is one of the event co-chairs.
Topics that will be covered include pain psychology, physical therapy, acupuncture and the connection between sleep and back pain.”
I’m excited about this event because this website’s (that is, PainFreeOutlet.com’s) mission and theme is, in a way, aligned with the principles that will be presented during the event. The event is to be live-streamed on YouTube on 09-13-2015 at 10am PST. I hope for those of us who can’t make that date/time, that the Stanford University Back Pain Education Day video will be online for a while, even after the event date.
