   Aug 3, 2019 · Moskowitz’s patients’ pattern of change is also consistent with what we see when the brain learns a new skill, like playing a musical instrument or learning a language. The time frame is typical of what I have seen in significant neuroplastic change: the change occurred over weeks (often six to eight weeks) and required daily mental practice.

   How did Moskowitz change the brain?

   • Moskowitz’s key insight was to try and devise ways to wrench back the brain to normal functioning – to change its “learned behavior” and stop its focus on pain. The process he devised was both counterintuitive and multidimensional.

   What happened to Michael Moskowitz?

   • After an accident, Dr. Michael Moskowitz, a pain doctor, tried and failed to treat his pain – which widened and grew worse and worse over time. As is common in a state of chronic pain, Moskowitz’s brain, over time, devoted more and more of its resources to assessing and paying attention to his pain.

   How did Moskowitz introduce Jan to his new approach?

   • Moskowitz introduced Jan to his new approach by having her first read Norman Doidge’s first book, “The Brain That Changes Itself”. Then he had her visualize her pain brain maps shrinking. She also visualized the pain signals coming up from her lower back into her brain, and then having the brain not react.

   Why did Moskowitz use visual stimuli?

   • Realizing that he needed a counter-stimulating force, Moskowitz developed a way to force his brain to process something other than pain. Because our brains devote so much brainpower to processing visual stimuli, Moskowitz focused on using visual stimuli to steal back regions of his brain that had been captured by pain.

   How did Moskowitz use neuroplasticity to treat pain?

   • Applying neuroplasticity findings to pain, Moskowitz created a visual based approach designed to tone down his brain’s response to pain. He used the process of “competitive plasticity” to consciously tell the pain-producing parts of the brain to disengage.
