Do you have patients you just cannot seem to get out of pain or explain the reasoning behind their pain? Dr. Chad Cook returns to take a deeper dive into the complex world of pain. In addition to his clinical research, advocating for the therapy profession, and treating patients, Dr. Cook holds a Certificate in Chronic Pain Management from McGill University. In this episode, we discuss pain types - guided by the Pain and Disability Drivers Model - which Dr. Cook helped develop. We dive into each category with Dr. Cook providing clinical examples and interventions for each.  You will learn how to determine if your patient is pain adaptive or pain non-adaptive and how to approach these patients in the clinic with more confidence and skill.
