Richmond introduces the principles of pain coaching, rooted in neuroscience, psychology, and patient-centred care. Learn how shifting the focus from “fixing pain” to “understanding the person experiencing it” can unlock better outcomes in workplace health and recovery.
🔍 Key Topics Covered:
  • Why chronic pain isn't always about where it hurts
