Abstract

Coming to grips with chronic pain is a very trying process for teenagers and their families. Dancing with Pain takes us into four teen's experiences dealing with pain from a facial injury, Sickle Cell Disease, CRPS (complex regional pain syndrome) and neck and shoulder trauma.

Combining animation of the brain's central role and embodiment through dance, we are led into the different stages of their healing, including the experience with their chronic pain team.

Produced and directed by Dr. Leora Kuttner with choreographer Judith Marcuse and dancer Vanessa Goodman, edited by Moira Simpson, with original score by Hal Beckett, this film is to inform and support health care professionals, patients and their families.
