Achilles RCT: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36095045/ NOI group - https://www.noigroup.com/ We feature two prominent speakers: Luke Bongiorno, Director of Noigroup, and Brendan Mouatt, Accredited Exercise Physiologist.  The speakers delve into profound questions about pain, the purpose of the NOI group, and the challenges clinicians face.

The conversation extends to the empowering aspects of understanding pain's multifactorial nature and the role of the neuroimmune system. The episode promises insights into addressing pain comprehensively, bridging research and practice, and enhancing patient understanding.
