The command center of the human nervous system is the brain. The sensory organs send information to the brain‚ which then sends output to the muscles. The largest part of the brain is the cerebrum. Underneath the cerebrum lies the brainstem‚ and behind that sits the cerebellum. The outmost layer of the cerebrum is called the cerebral cortex‚ which has four lobes. There is a frontal lobe‚ parietal lobe‚ temporal lobe‚ and occipital lobe. The brain develops from three sections known as the forebrain

Long term pain affects many people in today’s society. Approximately 10-20% of the working adult population reports persistent or recurring pain that limits their ability to work (Shaw et al.‚ 2012‚ p. 694). Pain that last more than three to six months following an injury or after the expected time frame of recovery‚ is seen as a chronic condition (Nilsen & Anderssen‚ 2013‚ p. 124). As a way of coping with this chronic pain‚ they develop many self-management techniques to get back to work and maintain
