During the afternoon of last Tuesday, December 10, a training session on pain management in the specific context of elite sport took place at the Palacio de los Deportes José María Martín Carpena for the players of the women's first team and the junior team of the Unicaja Basketball Club. The talk was given by Mario Bárbara del Moral, physiotherapist of the first men's team of the club and member of the Chair of Health and Pain of the University of Malaga.
