Neuropathic Pain and Spinal Cord Injuries with Kendra Todd and Robert Shaw

Informações:

Synopsis

Neuropathic pain can be debilitating for many individuals living with a spinal cord injury. In this episode, we talk with two guests about how exercise can temporarily reduce the neuropathic pain associated with such injuries, as well as how it can be used as part of a larger self-management strategy. PhD student Kendra Todd provides insight on her current research on this topic, and her colleague Robert Shaw shares his unique perspective from living with a spinal cord injury as the result of a diving accident in 2011.
