Book for clinicians on Pain-Related Fear: Exposure-Based Treatment for Chronic Pain
The book entitled ‘Pain-Related Fear: Exposure-Based Treatment for Chronic Pain’ by Johan Vlaeyen, Stephen Morley,
Steven Linton, Katja Boersma and Jeroen de Jong was published in 2012 by the IASP press
(http://www.iasp-pain.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=IASP_Press_Books2).
This book identifies fear of movement and injury as a primary issue in chronic pain management.
It provides a detailed treatment manual on exposure-based techniques for the reduction of pain-related fear
and disability in chronic pain. It includes a disc with therapist and patient materials and videos.
The book reads very fluently, and is a must-read for every clinician working with chronic pain patients.
Although primarily authored by psychologists, Pain in Motion acknowledges the value of exposure-based treatment
for a variety of professions, including physiotherapy, occupational therapy and rehabilitation medicine.
The book is authored by the world-leading researchers and clinicians in the field of the fear-avoidance model for chronic pain,
and its management using exposure-based treatment.
