Summary

This study evaluates the effectiveness of neurofeedback (teaching participants to gain control over their own brainwaves) in chronic pain. The study is made up of four pilot studies. Participants who take part will undergo the cold pressor test, submerging their hand in cold water in order to simulate chronic pain. Brain activity will be measured using electroencephalography (EEG).

Interventions

OTHER

Neurofeedback

During the neurofeedback intervention, participants will be shown visual representations of their own brain activity in real-time. Over a number of sessions participants will teach themselves to increase this brain activity, in order to increase their own pain resilience levels.
