In Wall's last text, "Pain-The Science of Suffering," he makes it clear that the three stages of motor response to painful sensation are in sequence, withdrawal, protection and resolution. If all three are instinctive, what would the last stage (resolution) look like and how might it be promoted?

My work seeks to answer these questions through the study of ideomotor activity, neurodynamics and manual methods of care. I've written of this extensively on my own web site, barrettdorko.com and elsewhere. I am hoping that this site might become yet another place where analgesic movement can be discussed. Perhaps the question above will help us get started.
