Description

Watch Stanford pain scientist, clinical psychologist, author and international speaker, Beth Darnall, PhD as she introduces Empowered ReliefTM. Empowered ReliefTM is a NIH-funded single-session 2-hour intervention that rapidly equips participants with effective pain relief skills. Remarkably, this method provides advances in scalable behavioral medicine for pain management that may be delivered by ALL healthcare providers! You won’t want to miss this opportunity to discover a method that can make behavioral pain care broadly accessible to your patients, thereby avoiding a singular focus on interventional and procedural approaches to chronic pain management only. Backed by four separate randomized controlled clinical trials conducted at Stanford University, Empowered ReliefTM complements traditional treatment strategies for meaningful ‘whole-person’ pain management.
