Chronic Pain

Pain is more than a physical experience; it is a complex condition that impacts emotional and psychological well-being. To understand chronic pain, it’s important to recognize the connection between brain, body, and emotions.

Impact of Chronic Pain:

• Reduction in meaningful and important activities

• Stress and fear

• Cycles of being sedentary/inactive and/or doing too much to promote further injury

• Anger

• Inactivity with relationships and isolation

• Problems with goal formation in context of chronic pain

• Depression and anxiety

• Sleep disturbances
