First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study surveyed 116 adults with chronic pain at a rehabilitation clinic to understand how their pain beliefs, spiritual well-being, and attitudes toward complementary and alternative medicine are related. Participants filled out several questionnaires about their pain, mood, spirituality, and views on alternative treatments. The goal was to gather information that could help create more complete, holistic approaches to managing chronic pain.
