The use of pain neuroscience education (PNE) in the management of chronic musculoskeletal pain is well documented in the literature for the adult population. However, the use of this component within the larger biopsychosocial approach has not been examined in adults with intellectual disabilities. The purpose of this case report is to describe the utilization of a PNE approach combined with exercise in the physical therapy management of chronic musculoskeletal pain in an adult with Down syndrome.
