Remote Hypnotic Cognitive Therapy for Chronic SCI Pain: Woo Woo or Worth a Look?
Support the Northwest Regional SCI System by donating at https://give.uwmedicine.org/sci. After listening, give us your feedback using this quick survey: https://redcap.link/sciforumpod Presented at the SCI Forum September 20, 2023 Chronic pain can be a significant problem for individuals with SCI. It is estimated that 68% of people living with SCI have neuropathic pain and/or musculoskeletal pain. Pain is correlated with a lower quality of life (more depression, sleep disturbance, physical dysfunction, etc.). In this presentation, Charles H. Bombardier, PhD, Rehabilitation Psychologist and Professor in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine, will discuss pain and his recent research on delivering remote hypnotic cognitive therapy. He will address what pain is, the biopsychosocial model, why nonpharmacological (non-medication) treatments are needed, and the results of this recent research project to treat pain from a distance.
