Are you a commissioner interested in the ESCAPE-pain programme?
We are organising a workshop for commissioners who are planning to include ESCAPE-pain in their MSK pathways. This event will be held in London on Thursday 3rd May 2018.
For more information please contact Ambra Caruso on ambra.caruso@nhs.net
ESCAPE-pain is a rehabilitation programme for people with chronic joint pain, that integrates educational self-management and coping strategies with an exercise regimen individualised for each participant. It helps people understand their condition, teaches them simple things they can help themselves with, and takes them through a progressive exercise programme so they learn how to cope with pain better.
Robust evaluation shows that ESCAPE-pain:
- Reduces pain
- Improves physical function
- Improves the psychosocial consequences of pain
- Reduces healthcare and utilisation costs.
Contact us by email at hello@escape-pain.org for more information.
