This interactive training series consists of 7 core modules and 2 sets of case studies.

Pain Management 4: Nonpharmacologic Therapies reviews common nonpharmacologic and nonsurgical modalities used within a multimodal approach to alleviate pain. By the end of this learning activity, learners will be able to:

  • Recognize indications for therapeutic exercise, physical modalities, and manual therapy to alleviate pain.
  • Recognize indications for behavioral and mind-body therapies to alleviate pain.
  • Counsel patients about the indications and limitations of pain management approaches that have a less robust evidence base but are frequently used by patients.
  • Identify the role of local injection or dry needling for patients with refractory pain.
  • Engage patients in productive and evidence-based risk-benefit discussions regarding incorporation of complementary and alternative medicine into a personalized, conventional pain management plan.
  • Partner with patients to select treatment modalities for a multimodal approach that is best suited to their pain type, functional goals, and self-management plan.
