Rethinking Pain
Hammersmith Health Books (Verlag)
978-1-78161-132-6 (ISBN)
A practical and empathetic guide to a revolutionary approach to living well with chronic pain, based on the fundamental principles that: all pain experienced is real; wherever the trouble originates in the body, pain is experienced in the brain; all pain is unique to the individual sufferer; the key to overcoming pain is not to strive to be pain-free but to minimise the experience of it. Dr Miranda, based on her medical practice as a pain specialist and on her experience as a pain patient, shows how to do this through a series of clearly explained tools and strategies.
Dr Helena Miranda is a physician and pain researcher at the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health and is also a pain patient suffering from migraines and disabling chronic sciatica. With this unique perspective she has developed tools for living with pain first brought to public attention in Ota Kipu Hatuun, the Finnish original of Living Well Despite Pain, which has been a runaway success in her native Finland and is being translated into more than 10 languages.
