Advanced Pain Communication

Plenty of podcast, articles, videos and other resources talk through the words and analogies we can say to help someone understand their pain.

This can give clinicians the right words to say, but they may still have no effect, as it is not just knowing WHAT to say, but knowing WHEN and HOW to say it.

This episode is the audio from a recent webinar I have given called "Advanced Pain Communication".

(23:07) - How do we encourage women to track their periods?
(29:40) - What if they come from a culture where menstrual health isn’t regularly discussed?
