Book excerpt: For over a decade now I have been helping people suffering with chronic pain and every day I see and hear of people suffering NEEDLESSLY. I hear these statements all day long, 'There is nothing that can be done', 'The doctors don't know what is wrong.', 'I have to control it with medication', 'I have been told that I need an operation', Or 'I just have to live with it.' Do any of these sound familiar? I am here to tell you, that all of those statements are incorrect and it doesn't have to be that way. I know from my own experience with chronic pain, (which I will tell you about later), and over 14 years with helping others in pain, that there IS another way. In this book I am going to share with you something absolutely revolutionary, which can change your life forever, as it has mine. I am going to show you why you have chronic pain. I am going to share with you the reason your body is doing this to you. And I will show you that it is not random or out of your control. And I am definitely going to show you that you no longer have to live with it. I want to show you that your body is going through a process, like software running on a computer, and your pain is somewhere in that process. I can show you what started it, and where you are in the process, and what you need to do to come out of the other side to be free of your pain. If you are reading this book and you are suffering chronic pain it means one simple thing, you are stuck somewhere in the process. Once you understand why you are stuck you can move forwards through the process, completing it and returning back to health. But I feel I must warn you, the information I am going to share with you in this book is radically different from anything you may have come across before. This information can, and I hope will, change the way you view your health forever. All you need is an open mind, and a desire to be free of pain.

Book excerpt: This invaluable resource presents a state-of-the-art account of the psychology of pain from leading researchers. It features contributions from clinical, social, and biopsychological perspectives, the latest theories of pain, as well as basic processes and applied issues. The book opens with an introduction to the history of pain theory and the epidemiology of pain. It then explores theoretical work, including the gate control theory/neuromatrix model, as well as biopsychosocial, cognitive/behavioral, and psychodynamic perspectives. Issues, such as the link between psychophysiological processes and consciousness and the communication of pain are examined. Pain over the life span, ethno-cultural, and individual differences are the focus of the next three chapters. Pain: Psychological Perspectives addresses current clinical issues: * pain assessment and acute and chronic pain interventions; * the unavailability of psychological interventions for chronic pain in a number of settings, the use of self-report, and issues related to the implementation of certain biomedical interventions; and * the latest ethical standards and the theories. Intended for practitioners, researchers, and students involved with the study of pain in fields such as clinical and health psychology, this book will also appeal to physicians, nurses, and physiotherapists. Pain is ideal for advanced courses on the psychology of pain, pain management, and related courses that address this topic.

Book excerpt: Everyone knows what is feels like to be in pain. Scraped knees, toothaches, migraines, giving birth, cancer, heart attacks, and heartaches: pain permeates our entire lives. We also witness other people - loved ones - suffering, and we 'feel with' them. It is easy to assume this is the end of the story: 'pain-is-pain-is-pain', and that is all there is to say. But it is not. In fact, the way in which people respond to what they describe as 'painful' has changed considerably over time. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, for example, people believed that pain served a specific (and positive) function - it was a message from God or Nature; it would perfect the spirit. 'Suffer in this life and you wouldn't suffer in the next one'. Submission to pain was required. Nothing could be more removed from twentieth and twenty-first century understandings, where pain is regarded as an unremitting evil to be 'fought'. Focusing on the English-speaking world, this book tells the story of pain since the eighteenth century, addressing fundamental questions about the experience and nature of suffering over the last three centuries. How have those in pain interpreted their suffering - and how have these interpretations changed over time? How have people learnt to conduct themselves when suffering? How do friends and family react? And what about medical professionals: should they immerse themselves in the suffering person or is the best response a kind of professional detachment? As Joanna Bourke shows in this fascinating investigation, people have come up with many different answers to these questions over time. And a history of pain can tell us a great deal about how we might respond to our own suffering in the present - and, just as importantly, to the suffering of those around us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Itchy palms...cold feet...a pain in the neck. Not a day goes by that our bodies don't "speak" to us through tickles and tingles, belches and bellyaches -- and psychiatrist Martin Rush takes us on an entertaining, enlightening exploration as he teaches us how to decode these secret signs and signals. Rush reasons that many of the twitches and twinges we experience may have psychological roots, rather than physical ones. The runny nose, lower backache, and cough signify some underlying wants or needs that the body is trying to convey. Because we aren't always aware of our feelings, the sudden symptom may be a physiological way of drawing our attention to an unnoticed emotion. By recognizing these signals, and then deciphering them, we can better understand the meanings in our aches, pains, and other symptoms. So, if you're itching to know why you have sudden chronic sneezing attacks, or why your eyelid occasionally twitches uncontrollably, or what is behind that unexplainable rash, then perhaps it's time for a visit with Dr. Rush. The quintessential example of the mind-body connection, Decoding The Secret Language of Your Body makes everyone aware of even the most subtle interaction between feelings and body responses.

Book excerpt: This study provides a much needed re-evaluation of the role of pain and suffering in Hartmann von Aue. By critically and carefully combining traditional philology with modern theoretical analysis, drawing on theorists such as Mary Douglas, Michele Foucault, Norbert Elias and Elaine Scarry, the author shows how the 'body' is symbolically structured in Hartmann's work to create a distinctly medieval signification system of pain. This system is analysed through an examination of the physical body and social body of the court, and the harmonious and refined image of courtly society as depicted in Hartmann's work where it is shown that the very ideological system that informs courtly life causes suffering in both the physical and social bodies.

Book excerpt: Dr. Pineda's greatest joy has been the ability to witness the quality of life changes in people. When she herself experienced chronic pain, it was then that she realized the need for a new, integrated, approach to her own health. Dr. Pineda was in severe, constant pain, and willing to try anything. Many of these modalities didn't work or made her pain worse. In desperation, she was pushed to research answers to heal. It was then Dr. Pineda felt a huge responsibility to share this journey in the hopes it could help her patients move from desperation to hope too. This book will walk you through the basics of chronic pelvic pain and why you continue to get flare-ups. Dr. Pineda's "Pelvic Pain Protocol" provides practical solutions so that you too can begin your journey of pain and symptom relief. Dr. Lavonne Pineda, DC has been in the health field for over 29 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to clinical and experimental research, nonverbal expressions of pain are key components in its assessment. Theoretical formulations of pain specify that various contextual influences, or factors unrelated to the pain experience (e.g., patients' age), significantly moderate observers' interpretation of nonverbal pain expressions. Such contextual factors have been found to alter observers' assessment of younger adults' pain; however, the systematic study of such influences within the context of the older adult has been limited. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of contextual factors on decoding facial pain expressions in both younger and older adults. A total of 165 participants (82 nursing students and 83 non-nursing students) were recruited. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three priming conditions: (1) information about the possibility of secondary gain [misuse]; (2) information about the frequency and undertreatment of pain in the older adult [undertreament]; or (3) neutral information [control]. Subsequently, participants viewed eight videos of older adults and eight videos of younger adults expressing pain nonverbally. Following each video, participants rated their perception of the individual's pain intensity, unpleasantness, and condition severity as well as their willingness to help and sympathy, patient deservingness of financial compensation, and how negatively/positively they feel towards the individual (i.e., valence). Mixedmodel analyses were conducted to determine the main effects and interactions across prime conditions (misuse vs. undertreatment vs. control), observer type (nursing and non-nursing students), and stimulus persons' age (older vs. younger stimulus persons) on observers' estimates. Results demonstrated that observers' ratings varied as a function of stimulus persons' age, observer type, and informational priming condition. More specifically, observers ascribed greater levels of pain and rated differently (e.g., greater sympathy) older stimulus persons compared to younger. Observer type and stimulus persons' age also interacted to influence observers' ratings. That is, in comparison to nonnursing students' ratings of younger adults, nursing student endorsed higher ratings of younger adults' pain and compensation deservingness. Additionally, priming conditions interacted with both observer type and stimulus persons' age to moderate observers' valence towards the stimulus person. In general, this interaction demonstrated that observers primed with information about the undertreatment of pain in older persons reported more positive valence towards older patients and priming observers with information about the misuse of the health care system attenuated their valence ratings towards younger patients. Finally, the undertreatment of pain in older adults prime also influenced observers' pain estimates indirectly though observers' valence towards the stimulus persons. More specifically, observers in the undertreatment prime condition reported more positive valence towards stimulus persons. The higher valence subsequently resulted in higher ratings of pain and affected other ratings (e.g., willingness to help) of both younger and older patients. In summary, results support the influence of contextual features in interpreting others' pain. Findings from this study add specificity to the theoretical formulations of pain by clarifying the role of several contextual factors on observers' interpretations of nonverbal pain expressions of older and younger persons.

In conclusion, this study provides new evidence on the relationship between chronic pain intensity, depressive symptoms, cognitive functioning, sociodemographic factors, and their associations with brain aging. The findings suggest that these factors are important predictors of increased brain aging and highlight the need for early intervention such as pain management and therapy to prevent adverse health outcomes. The results have important implications for understanding the complex interplay between these variables and could inform interventions to improve health outcomes in older adults.

Book excerpt: Handbook of Pain and Palliative Care:Biobehavioral Approaches for the Life Course Rhonda J. Moore, editor This book takes both a biobehavioral and a lifespan approach to understanding long-term and chronic pain, and intervening to optimize patients’ functioning. Rich in clinical diversity, chapters explore emerging areas of interest (computer-based interventions, fibromyalgia, stress), ongoing concerns (cancer pain, low back pain), and special populations (pediatric, elderly, military). This coverage provides readers with a knowledge base in assessment, treatment, and management that is up to date, practice strengthening, and forward looking. Subject areas featured in the Handbook include: ▪ Patient-practitioner communication ▪ Assessment tools and strategies ▪ Common pain conditions across the lifespan ▪ Biobehavioral mechanisms of chronic pain ▪ Pharmaceutical, neurological, and rehabilitative interventions ▪ Psychosocial, complementary/alternative, narrative, and spiritual approaches ▪ Ethical issue and future directions With the rise of integrative perspective and the emphasis on overall quality of life rather than discrete symptoms, pain management is gaining importance across medical disciplines. Handbook of Pain and Palliative Care stands out as a one-stop reference for a range of professionals, including health practitioners specializing in pain management or palliative care, clinical and health psychologists, public health professionals, and clinicians and administrators in long-term care and hospice.

International experts report on their findings, clinical experience and the most recent literature on the complex relations between these three domains. Clinical, psychological, behavioral and neuroimaging approaches converge towards aiding patients suffering from pain, cognitive impairment or emotional distress. Beyond the pathophysiological aspects of pain, difficulties encountered with patients are analyzed and strategies are proposed to optimize treatment, doctor-patient relationships, and patient well-being. This work will appeal to a broad readership, from clinical medical practitioners to psychologists, nurses and pain specialists.
