Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Singing	To investigate whether singing can help people to manage their chronic pain the applicants, working together with people with chronic pain, have developed a singing intervention, Singing for Chronic Pain (SCP). The development of the programme has been supported by Snape Moultings, an international centre for the arts which offered the team a residency to develop the programme (https://snapemaltings.co.uk/music/residencies/). The model takes a holistic approach using voice and singing, movement, sound, mindfulness and breath work to provide opportunities to connect body, voice, breath and mind. This is important given that people often use body dissociation as a way to cope with physical pain
