Condition or disease

Chronic Pain

Intervention/treatment

Acupuncture therapy

Detailed Description:

This study aims to gather preliminary feasibility and acceptability data to justify a subsequent trial that would fill a gap in knowledge regarding acupuncture's effects on interoceptive awareness among individuals with chronic pain. Our primary hypotheses are that (1) Feasibility: it is feasible for us to enroll and retain 70% of the patients and it is feasible to collect data from at least 70% of participants at 3-months follow-up, and (2) Acceptability: it is acceptable for 70% of licensed acupuncturists to use Acu-Track Registry; it is acceptable for 70% of patients to complete questionnaires emailed to them via Acu-Track Registry. The investigators propose to evaluate these hypotheses by conducting a prospective, pragmatic single-arm feasibility and acceptability study among individuals with chronic pain of any etiology or location, except if due to cancer. Chronic pain is defined as pain that persists or recurs for more than 3 months.
