Summary

This study tests whether a single, two-hour pain relief skills session called Empowered Relief can reduce chronic pain after a cesarean delivery. Sixty women who still have moderate to severe pain six weeks after their C-section will attend the session and be followed for 12 weeks. The goal is to see if this behavioral approach is feasible and helpful.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Empowered Relief (a 2-hour pain relief skills session)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to reduce chronic pain after C-sections.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study (60 people) testing feasibility, not effectiveness. Results may not apply to all, and the intervention may not reduce pain for everyone.
