How to handle a pain flare-up

Learn best practices for managing pain flare ups from a bio-psycho-social perspective.

Please enjoy this conversation with Ashley Labore of Clarity Wellness Therapies on how to best handle a pain flare up. In this discussion we cover:

  • the difference between acute and chronic pain
  • why stress can trigger physical pain
  • how understanding pain neuroscience can reduce fear of pain
  • how to best respond to pain in order to shorten flare-ups and get back on track
  • why it is important to stay active and social despite pain
  • 4-7-8 breathing
  • a mindfulness exercise called “noting” or “labeling”
