The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) updated its definition of pain in 2020.
The definition: “An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling* that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage”
*In other words, your pain is real, but it may not indicate actual or potential tissue damage! We call that neuroplastic pain, and it’s incredibly common! Neuroplastic recovery therapies (NRTs) like those used in my practice may help you finally heal your pain and start living your best life!
