Almost daily, you can pick up a local newspaper and read about the latest advances in the treatment of pain, especially chronic pain.  It is important to understand why people perceive pain they way they do and why each of us perceive it differently.  Is it learned?  Is it something we are born with?  To help us better understand the way people tolerate pain, especially those in the performing arts, could you please complete the question posed.  We are then going to compare your answers to those individuals who are not in a  performing arts related profession.  To see how people responded immediately click on display results.  Email us for our comparison.
