NRC Medical Experts - the neurorehabilitation experts’ Post

Why did I make sure to attend Painweek? Here's the scoop: The conference was packed with tons of valuable information for anyone involved in pain management. They covered everything from behavioral approaches to legal stuff and neurology—pretty much a full range of topics. This event reminded me how important it is to stay curious, and connected, and to keep pushing for a holistic, ethical approach to managing pain. We might not have all the answers yet, but these conversations are key. I know I'm where I'm supposed to be, and I'm all in for making a difference. What are your thoughts on how pain management is evolving? Would love to chat about it! #chronicpain #painweek
