What is predictive coding?

Are you someone who suffers from chronic pain?

Pain management can be a challenging journey, but advances in neuroscience and cognitive science may provide new avenues for relief. One of these avenues is predictive coding.

Predictive coding is a theoretical framework used in pain management to explain how the brain processes and experiences pain. The basic idea is that the brain constructs a model of the body and uses this model to predict when and where pain will occur.
