Mind-body therapies are treatments meant to help the mind's ability to affect the functions and symptoms of the body. Mind-body therapies use various approaches including relaxation techniques, meditation, guided imagery, biofeedback, and hypnosis.
Visualization may be another worthwhile pain-controlling technique.
Electromyographic (EMG) biofeedback may alert you to the ways in which muscle tension is contributing to your pain and help you learn to control it.
Hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis may help you block or transform pain through refocusing techniques.
Relaxation techniques such as meditation or yoga have been shown to reduce stress-related pain when they are practiced regularly
