Agenda
Description
Myofascial pain is a poorly understood and inconsistently addressed syndrome that affects millions of people. As there are conflicting definitions of the problem, there are differing treatment philosophies employed for management of these. This webinar will establish a working definition for these disorders. Neurological and musculoskeletal causes for these disorders will be discussed and related to relevant clinical presentations. Common pain sites and referral patterns will be discussed and options for intervention will be explored.
