To address chronic pain I believe the complex issues involved need to be treated in a holistic way, a complete blend of mind and body in every step. We are a complete person where all of our body systems and parts work together in natural harmony. For knee pain, back pain or any other pain, must be viewed as a part of a whole person.
You, the person with chronic pain, need to gain control of what is happening both inside and outside of consultations with pain specialist and doctors. To be able to ask questions about why you have pain, what will be the long-term outcome. You need to know the risks and side-effects of any treatment or therapy that is prescribed to treat your pain.
Self-responsibility and self-efficacy creates change, giving you control and with knowledge be able to help yourself.
I believe that there are many ways that Chronic Pain can be experienced and treated. Each is unique to you - the person with the pain.
