World of HURT Courses have been accepted in many states by multiple other professsions including OT, ATC, Personal Trainer Psycholgy, MD, RN, ND, DC, etc

Course Description: Assessment and treatment of patients with acute, subacute, and chronic persistent symptoms begins with knowing when to use a Pain Mechanism Approach versus a Pathoanatomical Approach. A pain mechanism approach allows classification and treatment of pain as it relates to the peripheral and central nervous system and it’s dominating factors to persistent symptoms. Targeting patient education and active care interventions to the dominating factors that prevent full recovery allows for customization of care plans and effective and efficient use of patient resources. This course highlights a pain mechanism subgrouping framework which addresses pain from acute, subacute, and chronic stages covering chemical, structural, mechanical, cognitive, emotional, social, psychological, and cortical factors. This course integrates pain science research into a biopsychosocial dynamic approach that promotes a common language for recovery between pain clinicians of all disciplines and patients that can transform rehabilitation interventions into patient self-assessment and prevention strategies. This approach can be used in all patient ages and musculoskeletal to neurological diagnoses suffering from persistent symptoms impeding recovery.

Course Objectives: At the conclusion of this course, participants should be able to:

1. Differentiate subjective and objective clinical characteristics in nociceptive, peripheral neurogenic, central sensitization, affective and motor/autonomic pain mechanisms.

2. Apply Pain Mechanism and Mechanical Diagnosis and Treatment classification principles to neurological patient population.

3. Classify dominant pain mechanism and prescribe patient education and active care intervention to musculoskeletal and neurological patients.

4. Objectively score patient related outcome measures using validated outcome tools.

5. Effectively communicate pain science education with individual treatment and within group model.

6. Effectively evaluate and treat Peripheral Nervous System, Neurodynamic, and Central Nervous System Sensorimotor Dysfunctions.

The book “a World of Hurt: A Guide to Classifying Pain” collaborates two proven mechanism classification systems to treat the Pain Continuum from Acute to Chronic. Collaborating the best of pain science education, specific exercise prescriptions and healthy lifestyle eating recommendations. These Words Moves and Foods interventions effectively treat musculoskeletal and neurological pain and spasticity based on the dominating peripheral or central mechanism. The principles from a World of HURT has been widely tested, used in many health care systems and private clinical settings, multidiscipline seminars, and university curricula. Clinicians, payers, and patients all benefit from the common language and insight provided by this resource. Six training courses assure a mechanism classification approach into clinical practice.
