Kinesiophobia


Kinesiophobia is a term used in the context of rehabilitation medicine and physical therapy to describe people's fear of pain due to movement, a factor that hinders rehabilitation and actually prolongs disability and pain.This fear of movement can be a factor in increased time to return to participation in pre-injury activities. It has been shown that higher levels of kinesiophobia are linked to a lack of re-entry into pre-injury activities.
