You will discover that what actually goes on behind the ‘K’ word is complex and exciting in many ways. The information shared opens up an exciting accessible new way of approaching health, wellness and ‘being well’. “Under Betsan’s guidance, the Stitchlinks group of patients with serious lifelong pain conditions who could have sunk in the misery and isolation brought about by chronic pain, contradicted all expectations. Needles clickety-clacking away, relentless banter and laughter, pain banished – at least for now.” Paul Harvard-Evans, Award-winning radio producer. Producer of Airing Pain for the charity Pain Concern “Betsan has squeezed her formidable experience and startling journey into a book. On reading it, you will be reminded of the unexampled magnificence of your brain and the splendid simplicity of knitting it to good health. On one level it is seductively simple - there is no doubt that without a brain, one could neither knit, nor hurt and it really does seem that doing the former reduces the latter. But Betsan’s book is about so much more than knitting and pain. It is about embracing the complexity of how and why our brain produces experiences. It is about making things, giving things, sharing things, while you make your own journey to recovery. I suspect you will have a rewarding trip.” Professor Lorimer Moseley, Professor of Clinical Neurosciences and Chair of Physiotherapy at The University of South Australia
