Abstract:

Chronic pain is a common condition. Around three quarters of people with chronic pain have pain in multiple sites. The more extensive the distribution of pain, the more intense, disabling and distressing it is. Treating chronic pain patients at a musculoskeletal site-specific level is unlikely to be effective. Psychological factors are implicated in nearly all types of chronic pain; integrated treatment plus integrated delivery of a biopsychosocial approach to treating the whole body and person may optimise care for those with chronic multi-site pain.
