Psychology of Pain CANCELLED

Nick will be presenting on the Psychology of Pain on October the 8th.    Pain is not just a physical sensation, but a complex experience shaped by biological, psychological, and social factors. Our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs can amplify or reduce pain, while attention and expectation strongly influence how it is perceived. Nick will cover how negative emotions often worsen pain, whereas positive emotions can improve our pain perception.  The presentation will also be covering phantom limb pain, gender differences and cultural differences in pain perception.
