BHC's April 2019 Education Meeting featured Matthew Nelson, PT, DPT, TPS, "Pain Wars: Understanding the Neuroscience of Pain." In this video, Dr. Nelson explains the neuroscience of pain, and how physical therapy can play a role in treating pain for chronic illnesses such as ME/CFS and FM. He touches on the difference in approach for FM vs. ME/CFS.

Dr. Nelson received received his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Regis University in Denver, Colorado in 2006. He spent three years as an assistant instructor of anatomy and musculoskeletal management at Regis. Matt was first introduced to a technique called trigger point dry needling in 2007 and quickly became an assistant instructor with Kinetacore, which he now teaches to other physical therapists across the United States and Canada throughout the year. He tirelessly spent the next 5 years working with the professional licensing board and state legislature of Utah and his professional organization to allow physical therapists to perform trigger point dry needling. It was passed into law in 2014. Because of his efforts, Matt was awarded with the honor of Physical Therapist of the Year in 2014. Dr. Nelson recently obtained his Therapeutic Pain Specialty from the International Spine and Pain Institute in 2018. This specialty recognizes him as expert in the treatment and education for chronic and complex pain conditions.

I'm grateful for this insight into the PT process with the education piece. It's difficult at first to accept that the pain is not only due to tissue damage, because we as patients feel that means our mind is partially to "blame" for our experience. But the more I learn, the more I appreciate the complexity of my CNS. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge in this forum, and thanks so much to BHC.

His reasons for why women are diagnosed more than men is not scientifically based and to me makes his whole talk suspect - women are more likely to seek care, women are more likely to fill out surveys, women are more emotional.I am stunned listening to
