Pain reprocessing therapy (PRT) is an approach to pain management that focuses on simple techniques for “rewiring” the neural pathways in the brain to deactivate pain. This therapy focuses on the pain signaling system rather than the parts of the body where the pain is felt.  

Dr. Yoni Ashar tested this approach in 2017, with his groundbreaking study affectionately known as The Boulder Back Study.

Dr. Ashar published his results in JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, clinically proving the effectiveness of the PRT approach. 98% of participants who received PRT treatment lowered their pain, and 2 out of 3 people who did this treatment got their pain into remission.

This podcast covers:

• The psychological and neurobiological processes that cause primary pain

• The PRT treatment framework

• Practical instruction about how to apply PRT principles to your life
