NyonThema:
Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT) is a person-centred physiotherapist-led cognitive and behavioural intervention, that guides people with persistent LBP to self-manage their condition. It is supported by a number of clinician trials including the RESTORE trial published in the LANCET.
This introductory workshop to CFT outlines the multi-dimensional nature of low back pain in athletes, key aspects of person-centred communication including guided behavioural examination techniques. A multi-dimensional clinical reasoning framework is used to provide individualized care to target the relevant biopsychosocial factors.
It will outline the key components of CFT: 1. making sense of pain, 2. exposure with control, and 3. life-style coaching. This workshop will follow the journey of CFT, through the experience of athletes with persistent low back pain.
The workshop will explore opportunities to develop knowledge and skills in CFT.
