Helping patients
manage their pain
88 year-old

Thanks to your generous support, an innovative
online pain management programme is helping
patients with chronic pain get back to their
daily activities. At the INPUT Pain Management
Centre at St Thomas’ Hospital, we use a form of
psychological treatment called Acceptance and
Commitment Therapy (ACT).
This treatment helps people open up to the
physical sensations of pain, emotions related to pain
(such as fear of injuring oneself), and pain-related
thoughts (for example, that pain reduction is needed
to increase activity), rather than struggling to control
these experiences. The programme also helps people
to focus more fully on the present moment, and to
connect with what they care about in life.
