In this free webinar, you will hear from four individuals (peer support facilitator, researchers, persons with lived experience of pain) with on-the-ground experience with, and a shared passion for, peer support in the pain community. Through a lively panel discussion, the speakers hope to share their experiences and invite you to engage in the ongoing conversation on peer-led pain support.

Mental health supports such as counselling or medications are often recommended to people living with chronic pain. However, there is a problematic history of chronic pain being thought of as a mental illness and people living with pain receiving insufficient care and supports as a result. In addition, many Canadians living with pain cannot access mental health supports. In this free webinar, four panelists will discuss the complexity of using mental health care to manage chronic pain and explore the possibilities of approaches that challenge how we traditionally think about mental health.

This webinar provides an evidence-based overview of how manual therapy and interprofessional collaboration can effectively support people with pain to manage back and neck pain.
