Efficacy of Conservative Interventions for Musculoskeletal Conditions on Pain and Disability in Active Serving Military Personnel-A Systematic Review

If a rose is a rose by any other name, how should we study treatment processes in pain management & rehabilitation?
A new instalment in my series about intensive longitudinal studies, aka ecological momentary assessment (and a host of other names for methods used to study daily life in real time in the real world). Daily life is the focus of occupational therapy – doing what needs to be done, or a person wants to do, in everyday life. It’s complex because unlike a laboratory (or a large, well-controlled randomised controlled trial) daily life is messy and there is no way to control all the interacting factors that influence why a person does what they do. A technical term for the processes involved is microtemporality, o...

What is An Emotional Support Animal?
Discussion Humans have had animals in their lives for millennia. Domesticated animals have been used for work, food, protection, and companionship among other activities.

Persistent pain and movement practices
Here I go, stepping into “the bio” to write about movement. Oh dear, what am I doing? Movement practices of various kinds are part and parcel of pain management.
