Introduction: Worldwide, the number of people suffering from
chronic pain is increasing; therefore, proper treatment is important.
Current evidence underlines a positive effect caused by interprofessional
rehabilitation approaches, which among others, include
educational approaches. The aim of this study was to provide
occupation-focused and educational interventions for clients with
chronic musculoskeletal pain.
Methods: To answer the question we performed a literature review.
First, we searched systematically for literature in the databases.
The content of the studies was evaluated and analysed based
on previously defined criteria.
Results: Eleven studies were included in the review. They are presented
in detail. They investigated four educational approaches:
1. Education on the neurophysiological development of pain, 2.
self-management and coping strategy training, 3. experience-based
and occupation-focused education, and 4. back training. The
results revealed positive effects on the clients’ understanding of
pain and their everyday coping.
Conclusion: Overall, the findings suggest that educational interventions
for persons with chronic pain are effective, both, in improving
the quality of occupational performance and pain intensity.
Different evidence-based educational interventions exist, which
are suitable for occupational therapy group settings.
