The area of rehabilitation research for patients having persistent pain is on the move. The rapid growth in pain science has inspired rehabilitation clinicians and researchers around the globe. This has led to breakthrough research and implementation of modern pain science in rehabilitation settings around the world. Still, our understanding of persistent pain continues to grow, not in the least because of fascinating discoveries from areas such as psychoneuroimmunology, exercise physiology, clinical psychology and nutritional (neuro)biology. This offers unique opportunities to further improve rehabilitation for patients with chronic pain across the lifespan. Also, the diversity of health care disciplines involved in the rehabilitation of chronic pain (e.g. physicians, psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses, coaches) provides a framework for upgrading rehabilitation for chronic pain towards comprehensive lifestyle approaches.

The Routledge Handbook of Physical Activity and Mental Health offers the most comprehensive review of the research evidence on the effects of physical activity on multiple facets of mental health. Written by a team of world-leading international experts, the book covers ten thematic areas: physical activity and the...

Bij (para)medische professionals groeit het besef dat de pijnneurowetenschappen een belangrijke rol spelen in de praktijk van het (para)medisch handelen. Dit handige boek speelt in op de groeiende vraag naar verdieping over de implementatie van pijnneurowetenschappen in het klinisch handelen. Het geeft een praktische handleiding voor het klinisch herkennen en behandelen van patiënten met centrale sensitisatiepijn. Welke behandelvaardigheden heeft de (para)medische professional nodig om patiënten met centrale sensitisatiepijn te begeleiden? Wat is de plaats van farmacotherapie, pijneducatie, cognitieve gedragstherapie en oefentherapie in de behandeling van centrale sensitisatie? Het concept centrale sensitisatie wordt toegelicht aan de hand van casussen uit de klinische praktijk: pijn bij kanker, nekpijn en lage rugpijn. Centrale sensitisatiepijn in de klinische praktijk is relevant voor alle (para)medisch disciplines die met chronische pijn patiënten werken, zoals fysiotherapeuten, manueel therapeuten, oefentherapeuten en revalidatieartsen.
