Ep25: Interviewing Physiotherapists about Pain at the CPA Congress 2024

I had the pleasure and privilege of attending the annual Canadian Physiotherapy Association Congress in Beautiful Vancouver in April. This episode compiles 8 interviews I conducted during the congress with clinicians. I think this is one of the best ways to involve more clinicians in the discussion of pain and physiotherapy. Last year, I asked about their views on and approaches to pain. This year, I asked them about their feelings about treating pain, what they wish to learn more about, and a memorable experience as a clinician. I also have a student interview at the end.

Paincast is dedicated to bringing together researchers, clinicians, and students to discuss topics related to pain and physiotherapy. The primary purpose is to facilitate knowledge translation and critical thinking. Some episodes posit themselves as more educational than others, and some more opinionated than others. The listener is encouraged to listen critically. While there is an effort to incorporate research evidence, and the topics are always researched by the host, we recognize there is room for improvement and there is expertise in the community. As such, we invite constructive critique and that you inform us of any inadvertent errors, so that we may correct them.
