This is a culturally sensitive Spanish translation of Living a Healthy
Life with Chronic Pain. 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.
Acknowledging that overcoming chronic pain is a daily challenge, this
workbook provides readers with the tools to overcome that test. A Moving
Easy Program CD, which offers a set of easy-to-follow exercises that can
be performed at home, is also included.
