Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Pain

by Sandra M. LeFort MN PhDLisa Webster RNKate Lorig DrPHHalsted Holman MDDavid Sobel MD MPHDiana Laurent MPH, Virginia González MPH & Marian Minor PT PhD

Chronic pain includes many types of conditions from a variety of causes. This book is designed to help those suffering from chronic pain learn to better manage pain so they can get on with living a satisfying, fulfilling life. This resource stresses four concepts: each person with chronic pain is unique, and there is no one treatment or approach that is right for everybody; there are many things people with chronic pain can do to feel better and become more active and involved in life; with knowledge and experimentation, each individual is the best judge of which self-management tools and techniques are best for him or her; and, the responsibility for managing chronic pain on a daily basis rests with the individual and no one else.
