The successful management of chronic pain remains an elusive goal.
As more complex diagnostic and intervention procedures become
available, patients and clinicians alike have ever-greater
expectations of banishing the problem of pain altogether.
Unfortunately this hope is rarely fulfilled and the frustration
experienced by everyone affected by chronic pain has remained more
or less the same over the last two or three decades. Based on over
40 years' of experience and research The Practical Pain Management
Handbook is a unique resource specifically designed for therapists
involved in running Pain Management Programmes (PMPs). This
engaging and effective handbook includes: intensive inpatient and
extended outpatient programmes all of which are at least 25 hours
in length; interactive materials designed to be used to form the
basis of group discussion. Where there is a question in the text
the suggested answer material is provided; assignments and tasks
that can be used as homework or group session exercises; both
standard Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and
Commitment Therapy (ACT) technologies as both have been found to be
valuable in PMPs. The handbook is organised into sections to fit a
useful logical sequence but can be adapted to suit your preference.
