The Secret World of Pain. 

Last month Neurosupport watched a fascinating ‘Horizon’ documentary called ‘The Secret World of Pain’ a segment of which covered the fascinating work of Professor Turo Nurmikko of Liverpool University.  Professor Nurmikko is developing a technique called ‘neuromodulation’ which, he hopes, might be the key to helping people who suffer from chronic pain.  In this part of the documentary Professor Nurmikko is working with artist Rebecca Key who suffers from chronic pain following a stroke.

Anyway, we thought that this whole subject would make an ideal event/conference/seminar/talk at Neurosupport and so we approached Professor Nurmikko with a view to getting this together.  And the news is: he has agreed. And we have a provisional date for this all to happen: 15th June 2011, here at Neurosupport - so very soon!

So, if you interested in knowing more about our event - provisionally called ‘Neurological Pain and Aspects of Pain relief’ - we would love to hear from you.

If you want to know more and/or would like to book yourself a place then please contact Danny Start at danny@neurosupport.org.uk or telephone 0151 298 3281/2999

We’d love to hear from you - so please get in touch.
