Foreword

People usually try to avoid pain. Sufferers of chronic pain cannot avoid their pain. Fortunately, Overcoming Chronic Pain teaches skills that turn pain sufferers into pain managers. By tuning into pain rather than trying to avoid it, sufferers learn to understand personal pain patterns. Understanding pain is the first step towards pain relief. This welcome relief comes about when readers learn a variety of pain management skills taught here in simple, straightforward steps.

This book combines the collective knowledge and wisdom of three pain specialists Frances Cole (a GP who is also a Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapist), Helen Macdonald (a Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapist and mental health nurse) and Catherine Carus (a Physiotherapist) working as a team with a Learning Technology Adviser, Hazel Howden-Leach. Drawing on feedback from hundreds of pain patients, the authors show readers how to chart a personalized pain model and choose skills to help manage the worst aspects of pain. Over time, readers who practise these skills can become more relaxed, physically fitter, and develop better problem-solving strategies. In addition, chapters teach how to reduce depression, anxiety, anger and the sleep difficulties that often accompany pain.
