Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) helps retrain your brain to better understand your body signals to help lessen pain sensation. PRT is appropriate for nociplastic pain. PRT uses neuroscience, education, and practical tools like Somatic Tracking. The goal is to experience your pain sensation through a lens of safety, reducing fear and changing the neuropathways in the brain.
