Quelques principes de prise en charge des athletes presentant des douleurs non traumatiques (les conseils peuvent transposes a des non-athletes sans probleme !) https://bjsm.bmj.com///09/08/bjsports-2019-101705.abstract

"Anytime you touch the skin you are touching a direct extension of the brain." "Sensory input travels via the mechanoreceptors through the dorsal columns and s...pinothalamic tract in the spinal cord. Interestingly enough, the spinothalamic tract does not only carry nociception, temperature, and crude touch. Pleasant touch can also travel along this pathway." "The Dorsal columns input goes to the thalamus, which sends information to the somatosensory cortex. The spinothalamic tract goes to the thalamus first as well, followed by the somatosensory cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, and the insular cortex. These three areas are what Diane noted as threat evaluation areas. These areas are part of your critter brain." "Once the brain receives this information, it essentially talks to itself to determine if this information is important or not. If important, an output occurs to respond to the input." "Many brain areas are a part of this conversation. The following locations contribute to the desired output in a particular way: Limbic system emotional experience. Venteromedial cortex pleasure, reward, meaning, creates positive reinforcement Anterior cingulate cortex bridge between instinct and rational; makes us worry about pain. Orbitofrontal cortex defers, suppresses, differentiates touch, interprets emotions (if you are in a bad mood, this is how your patient will know itso be happy!). Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex Chooses behavior. This area is where therapeutic neuroscience education targets."

Rey Allen posted this in July. He quotes: Results showed that prolonged sustained static touch applied by an operator engaged with focused tactile attention produced a significant increase of anticorrelation between PCC and right INS as well as right IFG but these functional connectivity changes are markedly different for the OTA and OAA conditions only after 15 min of touching. In other words, the present results showed that, if a particular cognitive status of the operator is sustained over time, it is able to elicit significant effects in the subjects’ functional connectivity between areas processing the interoceptive and attentional value of touch.

Patient expectation of treatment effectiveness is one of the largest predictors of outcome for both conservative and surgical management. This highlights the i...mportance of the clinician taking time to understand what the patient feels will help their condition, what treatments have worked in the past and what they think is going to be the most effective approach. The patient’s preference can then be used to guide the treatment approach along with clinical reasoning.
