San Diego Pain Summit

The San Diego Pain Summit is an annual conference to help physical therapists, occupational therapists, manual therapists, and other healthcare practitioners:

☀️ Improve communication and listening skills with patients and colleagues.

☀️ Recognize and examine clinical biases.

☀️ Confidence to navigate the complexities of patient's pain experiences.

☀️ Implement patient centered care.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "This conference showed me that personhood and relationship are key in healing professions, education, and in the experience of the patient with pain. The experts who presented clearly communicated the complexity of pain but also provide a more complete and integrated approach to help lessen the personal, social, and economic burdens that often come with it." Marianne Kane, RN, personal trainer

Patient Centered Care

The San Diego Pain Summit (SDPS) is committed to helping clinicians learn to shift their focus towards a patient-centered approach to pain management.

Human beings are occupational centered beings - meaning routine daily activities give people a sense of purpose. When experiencing injury and/or pain, this sense of purpose is disrupted, leading to anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and general loss of quality of life.

SDPS conferences and workshops help clinicians from a variety of backgrounds to understand how pain research can be used to guide patient care.

The San Diego Pain Summit conferences and workshops adhere to the guidelines set by the International Association for the Study of Pain's Curriculum Outline On Pain For Physical Therapy.
