The Sports Therapy Association Podcast is recorded LIVE every Tuesday at 8pm (UK) on the Sports Therapy Association YouTube channel and Facebook Page, and then uploaded as a podcast. You do not have to be an STA member to attend the live recordings - it is a chance to network with fellow therapists and discuss topics that together help us all move forward as an industry. The goal of the podcast, hosted by Matt Phillips (creator of runchatlive.com), is to deliver to Soft Tissue Therapists of all levels (including massage therapists, sports therapists, physiotherapists, podiatrists, chiropractors, etc.) up to date information on how to be a modern, successful, effective health care practitioner, with a gold star reputation for being able to help people in pain and/or looking for performance gains. The Sports Therapy Association (STA) is a professional representation for Sports Therapists, Sports Injury Therapists and Soft Tissue Therapists. We have worked passionately to develop a truly independent and ethical association that is committed to raising standards across the industry and progressing opportunities for our valued members.

In Ep.51 of the Sports Therapy Association Podcast (recorded live the slightly LATER time of 9pm UK), we are absolutely honoured to bring you the inspirational Dr Rachel Zoffness, highly respected pain & health psychologist and author of 'The Pain Management Workbook' - an integrative, evidence-based treatment protocol for adults, and 'The Chronic Pain & Illness Workbook for Teens' - the first pain workbook for youth.
Dr. Zoffness, a world-renowned expert on nonpharmacological approaches to pain management, discusses & answers live questions on 'Pain Management', a hugely important topic that drives the need for evolution in the health care we provide. Topics included:
- Understanding and embracing of the BioPsychoSocial model of pain
- How to explain pain to patients
- Metaphors like the 'pain dial' that can be useful in understanding pain
- Why healthcare still uses such an outdated model of pain
- The introduction of pain education as part of school curriculum.
Be sure to check out Dr. Rachel Zoffness' website including details of up and coming workshops.
