In her Tedx talk "Brain has power over our pain" Dr. Ziegenbein takes on the big topic of chronic pain. She breaks down the chronic pain to its basic parts (including how it is real yet "invisible" - no visible body damage or inflammation). Then she reviews a surprisingly simple set of pain reducing tools based on available scientific evidence showing that degree of our self-efficacy and ability to create safety for our nervous system are among the keys to pain reduction.
