An introduction to Chronic Pain Groups and what they have to offer. Take a look at the videos being shown in some GP surgeries.

 

Chronic pain management is a major person, societal and economic burden. For the majority of those suffering from chronic pain, it is not about the length of time they have had the pain, it’s about the loss of function, loss of identity, loss of mental health and indeed for many, a loss of hope. (Eccleston, 2011, 2016).
