Learning about pain can change pain

Multiple studies support the idea that simply learning about pain can decrease pain. Without changing the tissues at all, the simple act of gaining knowledge can be a powerful force in changing pain. Learning about pain also sets a foundation for self guided healing through mind body practices. That's exactly why I created this course and am now offering if for FREE. Bring an open and curious mind, and let this course lead you through why your pain is changeable.
