No #parkrun for me today (sore foot). Got the opportunity to enjoy the glorious scenery at Stansted Park rather than just the running path - but boy was it cold….
Calling all HCPs who treat people with persistent pain!
The #PainkillersDontExist campaign has shifted its focus to those at risk of dependence & addiction. The website contains a range of resources to support patients as well as HCPs.

@AdamMeakins Directly, pain becomes an injury when the sensation of ‘hurt’ alters function causing secondary stress on tissues resulting in overload or when a clinician starts to medicalise.
@DerekGriffin86 We have a relatively easy tool in the form of the @RCPhysicians diagnostic worksheet to make a diagnosis of FM. However it seems unkind for a clinician to be able to do unless they have a structure in place to start to support patients once the diagnosis is given.
A reminder that we have a number of PhD/Professional Doctorate Grants for the 2022/23 membership year available. Download an application from: https://t.co/3Pqez15EyY
The deadline for applications is 12 noon, Friday 20th January 2023
@parkrunUK There is something special about #parkrun / #parkwalk. The taking part and feeling belonging within a totally accepting community. #parkrunUK
@DanBockmannDC@Retlouping We do appear able to do things that can maximise the positive impact of contextual effects in care. This overlaps work on therapeutic-alliance. Lots published on this from psychology and increasingly in #physiotherapy and #chiropractic
Today's #NationalMentoringDay! Did you know "employees who received mentoring were promoted five times more often than those who didn’t have mentors" - @NMDglobal Let's celebrate our PRT Trainers who mentor a student & thank them for the hard work they do! https://t.co/sYZbgvmX0t
It’s common for #axialSpA to cause pain and stiffness in your hips and sacroiliac (SI) joints, so @YogaforAS teacher, Geoff Lindsay, has designed a yoga session to gently stretch these areas. If you can’t join this session live, you can catch up afterwards on our Facebook page.
"For several years after my diagnosis, I understated my pain."
For this month's blog, James shares the challenges he faced after diagnosis and finding a new career helping others.
