Chronic Pain Clinical Trials

Experimental: VRPS program

VRPS is based on four evidence-based principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy and pain neuroscience education. For this project we have selected relaxation, mindful escapes, pain distraction games, and dynamic breathing modules.The eight consecutive weeks program period of intervention is composed of one initial physical meeting with 1h duration to explain the basis/principles of the virtual tools offered, how the virtual appliance works and should be used, including safety recommendations as calm environment at home, sitting or lying position during use. Groups of maximum 13 patients will be organized. Patients will be instructed to use the equipment at least once a day and it can be used as many times as they wish per day aiming to reduce pain intensity or to avoid pain. Patients will also be asked to keep a diary to register the equipment use during the study period to secure the data.

No_intervention: Control group

Participants in the control group will not receive any of the interventions. This study will not interfere with medical treatment plan and patients from the three groups can receive other pain treatment prescribed by physician.
