It offers a way forward by helping you to understand that there is a pattern to the pain you suffer and that practical steps can be taken to minimise the impact of persistent pain on a person’s life, work and leisure. Manage Your Pain is recommended by IAPT (Improving Access to Psychological Therapies) and the British Pain Society.
