Title: Understanding Pain, Transforming Physiotherapy Practice

Physiotherapy is an essential pillar of our health system. The LFA and other Baltic PT profesional organisations vision is for all people in Baltic states have access to quality physiotherapy, when and where required, to optimise health and wellbeing and for the community to recognise the benefit of choosing physiotherapy.

The 2nd Baltic Congress of Physiotherapy brings together leading international experts to explore the latest developments in pain science, musculoskeletal physiotherapy, and clinical decision-making and patient centered care. Through keynote lectures and interactive discussions, participants will gain insights into chronic pain management, neuroplasticity, spine-related limb pain, and evidence-based approaches that enhance patient outcomes and professional practice.

Featuring internationally renowned speakers Mike Stewart, Dr. Hubert van Griensven, and Dr. Bronwyn Lennox Thompson, the program challenges traditional assumptions and explores innovative approaches to understanding and treating pain.
