We welcome Dr. Stacy Barrows to Pain Reframed this week! Stacy is one of the first instructors to teach how to use the foam rollers, and she has lectured extensively to health and fitness professionals on other topics such as the Feldenkrais Method®, treatment of the shoulder and arthritis. Stacy co-authored a study on Feldenkrais and pain management.

Stacy, Jeff, and Tim discuss how PTs can help patients become more aware of their movement patterns as well as learning how to move more effortlessly and enjoying the process of movement. Stacy includes some in-the-moment examples that you can try while listening to Pain Reframed!

Don’t forget to save the date: June 8-10, 2018 in Denver, Colorado, the Align Conference will be taking place, focusing on neuropathic (nerve) pain.  All of the various concepts of calming the nerves down will be covered at this conference.
