Day 3, Graded Motor Imagery! @modup of @f2pt demoing a little mirror box therapy. Retrain the brain to help with pain.
Today has hands-down (pun intended ?) been my favorite day of this 3-day course. The applications for GMI extend far beyond that of the “typical” chronic pain patient (CRPS, phantom limb), and the ol brain is buzzing just thinking about how these concepts could be applied for performance and return to activity.
I chose to show you guys a video of mirror therapy because it makes for a pretty cool visual, but implicit motor imagery and explicit motor imagery must be trained first, and I'm not gonna lie, they're both cool as ?. If you're not learning, you're not growing. I just gave you some dope topics to stew on. Go look some stuff up. ?
