Cognitive behavioral therapy for physical therapists?

[pudding_bowl]

Here in NZ CBT and chronic pain are covered in our training. So guess we are lucky in that regard. As far as articles go I can't think of any off the top of my head, I just use it as required. Mckenzie is brilliant and does have a fantastic method for involving the patient and using minimal force required. If your looking for information on graded exposure and graded activity then I suggest you research into david butler and laurimer mosely's work. They are brilliant with their chronic pain and have alot of info. Books such as explain pain are a good referance.

mate i can give only respect to your country only because Mckenzie and Mulligan are from there!!! Both of them are genious in what they gave to our profession,especially the first....As far as concernerd the literature on chronic pain states, have u any other book recommendations on that field?? i mean,i also ve heard that the book "EXPLAIN PAIN" by Butler and Moseley is an excellent reference, but also that it is not so descriptive...For example the classic book "TEXTBOOK OF PAIN" by Wall and Melzack,u think is a good reference especially about chronic pain???
