We're placing a spotlight under chronic pain group visits. As a loyal follower of the show, you know that we tackle and raise awareness around some of the biggest and most important topics and issues affecting pain science, pain care and chronic disease. Our guest is passionate about a single solution to the biggest challenges facing healthcare and how it can eliminate the chronic disease, escalating costs, practitioner shortages, quality care affordability access, practitioner burnout, loneliness, and the physical and mental health conditions we see now. That solution is the healthcare system that functions from a group visit model. Our guest is my good friend, James Maskell.

James is the host of a podcast and a show called the Functional Forum, which has become the world's largest integrative medicine community. He's on a mission to create structures necessary to evolve humanity beyond chronic disease, including chronic pain. He lectures internationally and has been featured on TEDx, TEDMED, the Huffington Post, and is also the Founder of Knew Health, a payer solution for chronic disease reversal. In this episode, James will provide you with the guide to creating and structuring group visits including how they originated, what they are, how to run them, how to avoid pitfalls and overcome challenges. Also, best practices for launching and facilitating a group visit, as well as online and digital tools for ongoing support. James will also discuss his book on the episode, which is called The Community Cure. It's an excellent resource if you're interested in group visits, how to structure them and how to get reimbursed for them. You can download that book by going to www.TheCommunityCure.com. I highly recommend you download it and grab your copy. Let's begin and let's learn all about group visits with James Maskell.

As always, it's an honor to be with you. Many of you know that I'm going to be launching a new act for chronic pain course that will come out in later January. Throughout the month of January, there'll be at least one, if not four different podcast episodes with regard to ACT, which is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and the model of psychological flexibility. If you’re interested in learning more about ACT, make sure you check out the course and sign up for the wait list at the Integrative Pain Science Institute. The way you can do that, go to the IntegrativePainScienceInstitute.com and go to the Courses tab where you can sign up for the latest course release. There is a lot involved in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for the treatment of chronic pain. The general goal of ACT is to increase something that's called psychological flexibility. Psychological flexibility can be defined as the ability to contact the present moment and change your persistent behavior when doing so, serves a valued end. That basically means when your behavior serves the things that you love or the things that you value in life.

Building patterns of behavior that promotes psychological flexibility is important to help people open up and we'll only approach some discomfort as they recover from chronic pain. Psychological flexibility is also important for practitioners to develop, particularly for a practitioner who has been trained in a traditional biomedical model of pain. If you are a practitioner who is starting to implement different types of psychologically informed care into your practice, know that psychological flexibility helps you as a practitioner drop the storyline that you're here to either fix or cure someone with pain. Instead, it places you in a position where you can walk arm and arm with someone as you help and support them through their journey to overcome pain.

It's a very different perspective when you look at the biomedical model versus a biopsychosocial model or using ACT as a method of psychologically informed care. Here to speak to us about psychological flexibility and ACT is physiotherapist, Tom Young. Tom has worked both in the United Kingdom and Canada as a physiotherapist with a specialization in chronic pain. He lives in Canada where he's worked in an adult chronic pain service and now works with complex pediatric pain. Tom is also now leading a research project on how physiotherapists can be trained to utilize psychologically informed practice. On this episode, Tom will discuss ACT, psychological flexibility and how he uses ACT in his practice as a pain specialized physiotherapist.

I wanted to do a quick listen or shout out. Starting 2020, if you leave me a five-star review on iTunes, I'm going to read it at the beginning of the show and mention your name. Today’s listener shout-out is for Emma who lives in Canada. Emma says, “Dr. Joe, I want to let you know how useful your emails and podcasts are for me. My chronic pain from fibromyalgia has completely turned my life upside down. I’m someone who used to exercise regularly. I cannot endure any type of exercise after developing fibromyalgia, not even gentle yoga, not even a massage. The knowledge about pain from your podcast has provided me with such an understanding of the body, the mind and pain that for the first time I feel in control over my situation. Knowledge is power. I no longer feel like I'm damaged goods and I have less anxiety about where I'm going. I am by no way 100% pain free, but I cringe at the thought of how debilitating I would be now if I had never learned about pain from your podcast. I know your focus may be on health professionals, but I'm so thankful to hear about your discussions and learn from you each week.”

Emma, we're thankful that you tune in each week to learn about pain. I'm so happy to hear that you're empowering yourself with information because like you said, “Knowledge is power for chronic pain.” Emma, we wish you well and make sure to keep us up to date on all the steps you're taking to overcome chronic pain each week. If you enjoy what you hear on the show, whether you're a practitioner or someone who lives with pain, hop on over to iTunes and give us a five-star review, along with some comments about what you enjoy about the podcast. You never know, you may be my next listener shout-out. Let's begin and dive into ACT and psychological flexibility with physiotherapist, Tom Young.

In this episode, we are exploring the outcomes of the Pain Neuroscience Education and what to do about the partial reconceptualization of pain. If you're not familiar with the term reconceptualization of pain, it can be defined by three key concepts. The first is that the pain does not provide a measure of the state of tissues. The second is that pain is modulated by many factors across somatic, psychological and social domains. Finally, the relationship between pain and tissue becomes less predictable as pain persists. Pain Neuroscience Education, Pain Neurophysiology Education, explain the pain. Pain education is all different types of terms that relate to educational interventions for patients with chronic pain.

Pain Neuroscience Education assists patients to reconceptualize their pain away from the biomedical model towards a more biopsychosocial understanding by explaining pain biology. It's what we do here on the show. To help us understand the partial reconceptualization of pain is Dr. Cormac Ryan. He's a Professor of Clinical Rehabilitation at Teesside University in the United Kingdom. He has earned both a Masters in Physiotherapy and a PhD, where he explored the relationship between physical activity and chronic lower back pain. Ryan has published over 60 peer-reviewed journal articles and it has obtained over $1 million in research funding.

His research interests are primarily in the era of chronic pain and its impact on patients and developing new interventions to help patients better manage their condition. He has a particular interest in the area of Pain Neuroscience Education as an intervention for patients with chronic pain. You will learn what we mean by the partial reconceptualization of pain. Is a partial reconceptualization a success or a failure? What things we can do to maximize reconceptualization and where the research needs to go next with regards to Pain Neuroscience Education? Dr.

Ryan has also provided an interactive diagram and guide to explain the pain to patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain. Whether you're a practitioner or you're someone who's looking to overcome pain, this is something you're going to want to download and read through thoroughly. To download this diagram, all you have to do is text the word, 164Download, to the number 44222 or you can open up a new browser on your computer and type in the URL, www.IntegrativePainScienceInstitute.com/164download. I enjoyed this episode and I know you're going to enjoy it as much as I did. Let's get ready and let's meet Dr. Cormac Ryan.
