Rating:

Despite the title, Healing Pain does not focus on relieving physical pain. This book looks beyond the physical aspects of pain into the often hidden aspects of emotional suffering associated with chronic pain. The author, a pain management specialist, reflects that chronic pain, be it from cancer, fibromyalgia, or an acute injury that never fully healed, have some very specific things in common. The most significant of these aspects is the overall emotional toll that it takes on the individual and his or her family. The nature of chronic pain, depression, guilt, and concerns over potential addictions to pain medicines are just a few of the very important topics discussed in this book. Exercises, topics for journaling, and step by step programs to alleviate emotional pain are also dispersed throughout this important groundbreaking text.
