Chronic Pain Research
What We Are Studying

Why is this important?

This research will help us identify the types of prayer that are most helpful for folks with chronic pain. In doing so, we can better help people better cope with their pain. 

We will be examining the role of prayer as a way of coping with chronic pain. We know that people use many techniques to cope with chronic pain, including praying to God or a higher power. We are trying to better understand that prayer including what kinds of prayer are most helpful.
