EPISODE 51 - Why simple solutions and quick fixes don´t work for chronic pain ft. Brendan Mouatt and Luke Postlethwait

This episode is featuring Brendan Mouatt and Luke Postlethwaite from The Knowledge Exchange, a team of health professionals with a background in research seeking to better the clinical practice by translating research into practical knowledge for healthcare professionals. Brendan and Luke are through their company, working towards a future of better clinical practice, with all the best available research.

Together we talk about how simple solutions rarely work for chronic pain, the role of the clinician, why you need a tailored treatment for each patient and experience from own practice.
If you want to learn more from Brendan and Luke, you can join one of the many courses they provide. They are visiting Copenhagen with their course “Pain, Perception, and Movement in a Biopsychosocial Framework” the 30th September and 1st October.
