The current approach to managing chronic pain is under scrutiny in this book, which offers a critical analysis. As healthcare systems grapple with the challenge of providing care for individuals with long-term health conditions, there is a growing emphasis on self-management of chronic pain. However, Karen Rodham argues that while self-management is an empowering concept, it has not yet been fully realized in practice, leading to the potential for blaming and shaming individuals living with chronic conditions for their inability to effectively manage their conditions. She suggests that this tension can exacerbate their condition, emphasizing the need for a shift away from the terms "self-management" and "management" towards a more collaborative approach.
Drawing from research evidence and her extensive clinical experience, Rodham advocates for a perspective that takes into account the individual's life context, recognizing the multifaceted aspects that influence their pain experience. This book explores the limitations of focusing solely on self-management without considering the broader life context and examines the factors that have contributed to this tendency. It offers insights into potential solutions and provides valuable resources for researchers and practitioners, particularly in the field of health psychology.
By advocating for a more collaborative approach, this book aims to empower individuals living with chronic pain by acknowledging their unique circumstances and providing them with the support and resources they need to thrive. It serves as a call to action for healthcare professionals to prioritize patient-centered care and work towards creating environments that foster self-management and collaboration, ultimately improving the quality of life for those affected by chronic pain.
