    El dolor crónico es un problema de salud pública de primer orden que afecta aproximadamente al 30% de la población adulta. Muy a menudo resistente a los tratamientos farmacológicos, el dolor se acompaña con frecuencia de un gran sufrimiento que perturba la vida cotidiana de quienes lo padecen. Las intervenciones psicológicas —que no pretenden curar el dolor, sino ayudar a los pacientes a desarrollar recursos psicológicos para afrontarlo mejor y recuperar su calidad de vida— constituyen una parte importante de las estrategias de abordaje.
