In April 2010 the Neuro Orthopedic Institute (NOI) will realize a dream—a world-class conference on pain management, pain education and neurodynamics. This conference has been in the works for years and will be a MUST for our NOI-devotees—featuring all the great researchers, clinicians and speakers we so often mention. Many, if not all, of the NOI(US) instructors will be there—come and hang out with us along with speakers such as David Butler, Lorimer Moseley and more

About the conference:

This novel conference aims to create and expand participants’ utilization of the nervous, motor, immune, pain, endocrine and other biological coping systems in clinical and research strategies. Changing the way participants understand and manage problem states that are conventionally considered to be ‘musculoskeletal’ will be a major focus of the conference. The NOI 2010 conference has a broad biopsychosocial orientation with an emphasis on evidence, and where evidence is lacking, on knowledge of biological, psychological and social processes in order to promote freedom for research and clinical expression.

Learn from internationally recognized experts in the fields of brain and peripheral nerve plasticity, immunology and pain motor control, brain imaging, neurodynamics, stress physiology, education science and rehabilitation. They include Herta Flor, Elspeth McLachlan, Michel Coppieters, Lorimer Moseley, Mick Thacker and David Butler, backed by an impressive array of invited clinicians and emerging researchers and a vast array of mind bending breakout sessions.

Breakout sessions include: fine neurodynamic handling, the launch of ‘noimove’, patients with big problems, explaining pain strategies for surgery, sensory motor exercise and reflex inhibition, graded motor imagery, immunology and rehabilitation, measurement of nerve movements, the illusions room, facial pain and cranial nerves, pain health and literacy strategies, neurodynamic practicals, ‘images of the brain and pain’ art exhibition.
