Introduction[edit | edit source]
Motor control is the "ability to regulate or direct the mechanisms essential for movement" Shumway-Cook, A., & Woollacott, M. H. (2007). Motor control: translating research into clinical practice. Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Motor control refers to all of the motor, sensory, and information-processing elements associated with generation of motor functions [61]. Differences in any (or all) of these elements may be present in an individual with present, previous, or threatened pain. For the patient in pain, consideration of motor control may be critical for recovery, and to address these issues may be a major element of intervention. This chapter provides an overview of the contemporary view of motor control changes in pain, possible mechanisms, and potential benefits of treatments that aim to change the way a patient moves.
