PDSR – Personalized Danger Signal Reprocessing
We are exploring a novel therapeutic approach for chronic low back pain, a condition affecting 18% of the population, often linked to persistent nociplastic pain without clear physical causes. Traditional treatments frequently fall short, prompting the development of Personalized Danger Signal Reprocessing (PDSR). PDSR combines neuroscience and clinical psychoeducation, sensory awareness and reprocessing, mindset reframing, using coaching to shape patients’ perceptions of pain and foster healing.
Importantly, we examine how nonverbal therapeutic dynamics, such as synchronized movements vocal pitch associated with the clinician-patient bond and treatment outcomes. By analyzing audio, video, and physiological data from the therapeutic sessions, we aim to uncover mechanisms that drive therapeutic success.
This project seeks to advance understanding of chronic pain treatment, offering a scalable, non-invasive model that could transform clinical care and improve patient outcomes.
