[Physio Discussed] Pain management in practice with Dr Lorimer Moseley and Dr Tasha Stanton

Physio Network

In this episode, we discuss pain science and all of its complexities. We explore:

• The definition of pain and chronic pain
• Pain in total knee replacement recovery
• Patient and therapist expectations and their role in pain
• Perception and awareness in pain
• Language and visualisation strategies and resources in pain
• Spinal pain
• Role of pain in knee OA
• Importance of education in pain management

Professor Lorimer Moseley is a Bradley Distinguished Professor at the University of South Australia. He is interested in pain and other protective feelings. He has written over 400 scientific articles and 7 books. His foundational discoveries and outreach initiatives have led to awards in 15 countries. He leads the non-profit Pain Revolution and in 2020 he was made an Officer Of the Order of Australia for distinguished contribution to pain and its management, education, science communication and physiotherapy, to humanity at large. He lives, works, and rides a very cool e-scooter, on Kaurna Land in Adelaide, South Australia.
Associate Professor Tasha Stanton leads the Persistent Pain Research Group at the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute (SAHMRI) and is co-Director of IIMPACT in Health at The University of South Australia, Adelaide. She is a clinical pain neuroscientist, with original training as a physiotherapist. Her research focuses on pain – why do we have it and why doesn’t it go away? She has a specific interest in chronic pain, osteoarthritis, pain science education, and novel technologies, such as virtual and mediated reality, to enhance exercise engagement.
