🇪🇺 A special day for the Digi4MSK consortium in Zaragoza.

This morning, all project partners came together for our final project meeting — a moment to look back at three years of collaboration, shared work and everything we have built together across Europe.

In the afternoon, we had the chance to step away from the meeting room and enjoy Zaragoza together with a guided tour of the city. 💙

And tomorrow comes the perfect way to bring these three years of work together: the Digi4MSK Final Congress.

We’re ready to share, discuss and celebrate what has achieved with healthcare professionals joining us in Zaragoza and online.

🧠 One congress. Different clinical perspectives.

Musculoskeletal pain care is complex — and no single approach is enough.

At the Digi4MSK Final Congress, professionals from different backgrounds will explore the challenges of pain care from complementary clinical perspectives:

💬 Communication
How can the way we explain pain support behaviour change and build trust?

🧩 Self-management
How can we help patients become active partners in their care?

🧠 Biopsychosocial care
How do we move from understanding the model to actually applying it in clinical practice?

🏃 Rehabilitation
How can exposure, movement and functional recovery be integrated into person-centred care?

⚠️ Complex pain
How do we make safe decisions, identify red flags and respond to more complex clinical situations?

🤝 Multidisciplinary care
How can different professionals and services work together to provide more integrated pain care?

Different perspectives. One shared goal: improving care for people living with musculoskeletal pain.

🧠 Can the words we use about back pain actually contribute to fear and disability?

“Degeneration.” “Disc bulge.” “Narrowing.” “Damage.”

In his Digi4MSK webinar, Professor Peter O’Sullivan reflected on how diagnostic labels, imaging findings and messages about having a “vulnerable back” can shape the way people understand their pain.

When people are repeatedly told to protect their back, avoid painful movements or interpret scan findings as evidence of damage, the consequences can go beyond the consultation: fear, hypervigilance, avoidance of activity and greater reliance on passive treatments.

As Peter highlights, findings on scans do not necessarily predict a person’s pain experience, disability or future trajectory.

🎥 In this extract, he raises an important question for clinical practice: How do we communicate back pain when there is no clear pathology?

Communication, beliefs about pain and person-centred care will also be part of the wider conversation at the Digi4MSK Final Congress on 19 September, with national and international experts sharing evidence and practical approaches to musculoskeletal pain care.
