The event is sponsored by the Policlinico Riuniti and the University of Foggia as well as by the national scientific societies of Rehabilitation Simfer and Sirn.

The topic of the Congress will be pain management and the use of physical energy in rehabilitation. This issue is encountered daily in clinical practice due to the high incidence of pain resulting from neurological and musculoskeletal pathologies.
The growing demand for increasingly conservative treatments aimed at pain control sees the physiatrist as a reference figure in the planning of healthcare and rehabilitation treatments, launching a program of paths that aim to centralize the patient and his need for care with the use of emerging technologies with a high safety and efficacy profile.
The speakers involved in the Congress will address issues related to the pathophysiology of pain, the clinical classification and pharmacological management as well as the use of related physical therapies. Particular attention will be paid to modern minimally invasive techniques involved in pain management, such as neuromodulation and microsurgery.
