Summary

Chronic pain is a disabling condition associated with progressive changes and decline in psychological wellbeing. According with a modern conceptualization, pain has to be considered a biopsychosocial disorder where biological, affective, social and psychological aspects are strictly connected. Although this new conceptualization, the implementation of an integral systems approach of psychological tenets into treatments for chronic pain are limited. Concerning treatments of chronic pain condition, the literature of the last years has demonstrated how clinical benefit can be improved when traditional therapies are combined with behavioral approaches in particular mindfulness. Systemic quantitative-somatosensory testing of Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM) can be considered a measure of endogenous modulation of pain and it has been used in different clinical experiences to evaluate the effectiveness of different pain treatments even if non pharmacological approaches.
