What if we've been looking at pain all wrong? Join me in a fascinating conversation with Asaf Weisman, a clinician and researcher in Israel who offers a differing perspective on the biopsychosocial model of pain from what is commonly seen on social media.

Asaf's personal history of chronic pain from skateboarding and migraines, combined with his professional background in physical therapy, provides a backdrop for our discussion on the term psychogenic pain and the potential future of pain relief in biological treatments.

We had a solid discussion on psychogenic pain as a label, and how it's often used as a convenient way to dismiss a patient's experience. Moreover, we delve into the false delineation of somatic and nonsomatic pain, and the challenges clinicians face when navigating these concepts.

Asaf shares his thoughts on why the biopsychosocial model of pain has been a red herring for pain research and argues that the future of pain relief will be in biological treatments.

Finally, we explore the potential to influence chronic pain states through lifestyle factors such as weight, smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical activity. Don't miss this thought-provoking conversation that will surely challege the way you think about pain.
