• The Hidden Connection Between Movement & Pain (CRPS & FND Explored)

  🎙️ Hosts: Tim Beames & Bart Van Buchem What if pain isn’t just about injury—but about how we predict movement? In this episode, Tim Beames and Bart Van Buchem unravel the deep connections between Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) and Functional Neurological Disorders (FND), exploring how pain and movement disorders often overlap and what that means for recovery. 🔍 What you'll learn: ✅ Why pain and movement disorders frequently co-exist ✅ The predictive nature of movement—how our brain shapes our motor responses ✅ The debate: Should rehab focus on pushing through pain or finding comfort in movement? ✅ The role of awareness, agency, and flexible treatment strategies in recovery ✅ How insights from FND treatment can improve approaches to CRPS 💡 Bonus Resource: Interested in the research behind this discussion? Check out the 2018 paper by Stoyan Popkirov et al. on the CRPS & FND debate in Neurology. https://doi.org/10.1136/jnnp-2018-318298 🎧 Listen now and explore more pain science discussions at Le Pub Scientifique! #PainScience #CRPS #FND #ChronicPain #MovementDisorders #PainRecovery

• Episode 60: Unpacking nociplastic pain: Beyond damage, into perception

  Summary In this episode, Bart Van Buchem and Tim Beames discuss the complexities of nociplastic pain, a relatively new classification of pain that arises from altered nociception without clear evidence of tissue damage. They explore the implications of this classification for clinical practice, the importance of understanding patient perspectives, and the cultural considerations that influence pain terminology. The conversation highlights the challenges of diagnosing nociplastic pain and emphasizes the need for a broader understanding of pain experiences, including psychological factors. They also touch on the upcoming science session featuring Jo Nijs, which aims to further explore these topics. Takeaways - Nociplastic pain is a significant and ongoing debate. - Understanding pain mechanisms is crucial for effective treatment. - Classification of pain can influence treatment decisions. - Patients often seek acknowledgment for their pain experiences. - Cultural factors play a role in how pain is classified and understood. - Pain experiences are often complex and multifaceted. - A broader perspective on pain is necessary for effective management. - Nociplastic pain challenges traditional pain definitions and classifications. - Psychological factors must be considered in pain management. - Upcoming discussions will provide balanced perspectives on pain classification. Topics nociplastic pain, pain classification, chronic pain, pain management, clinical practice, pain terminology, patient perspectives, cultural considerations, pain complexity, treatment implications Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Nociplastic Pain 05:59 Clinical Implications of Nociplastic Pain 12:05 Patient Perspectives on Pain Terminology 18:00 Complexity of Pain Experiences 23:55 The Future of Pain Management Recorded November 2024 Useful Links Le Pub Website: www.lepubscientifique.com  Become a Le Pub member: https://www.lepubscientifique.com/premium-membership  Contact us: [email protected] Follow us: Twitter: @lepubscientifiq Instagram: @lepubscientifique LinkedIn: @LePubScientifique
