  • 소개/요약Chronic pain is considered a common disabling disease, frequently related to a high comorbidity with anxiety and depression. Several psychological techniques have demonstrated to be effective in the treatment of chronic pain, in particular, mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) seem to reduce pain acting on self-regulatory individual's ability. In addition, this approach could develop cognitive strategies to decrease impulsivity. We selected a case of a patient with encephalomyelitis and spastic tetraparesis to assess the application and effectiveness of MBIs to reduce pain perception, improve anxiety and depressive symptoms. Our treatment showed a reduction in pain perception, and an improvement in anxious and depressive symptoms. In conclusion, MBIs could be useful to relieve disorders related to pain in neurological patients.
