No results posted yet for this study

Summary

With the present study the investigators wish to examine if reconceptualisation of pain, by educating chronic whiplash-associated disorders (CWAD) patients on the neurophysiology of pain, in combination with psychologic innoculation is able to influence maladaptive (pain) cognitions, pain (inhibition) and movement performance, and reduce symptoms.

Conditions

  • Pain, Chronic
  • Whiplash Injury

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Pain neurophysiology education (PNE) and psychologic inoculation (PI)

3 sessions of PNE+PI are given which include education on pain neurophysiology and applying the PI technique for which subjects are asked to refute sentences which are read by the therapist.

BEHAVIORAL

Neck school (NS)

3 sessions of NS which includes advice on posture, ergonomics and on performing activities.
