Official Title: Evaluating the Physiological Impact of Pain Neuroscience Education Versus Standard Education for Older Adults With Osteoarthritis
Brief Summary:
In this study, the investigators are comparing two types of education for older adults with knee osteoarthritis: standard biomedical education focusing on the disease process, and a newer approach called pain neuroscience education (PNE), which teaches about the complexity of pain and dispels myths.While PNE has shown benefits in self-reported pain and function, little is known about its effects on physiological responses to pain.the investigators will measure physiological indicators, particularly activity in the…
