Finally better quality of life again! This app can help you actively and independently control pain better - because you can do something yourself. PAIN LESS was developed primarily for people with chronic pain, but of course also works for acute pain conditions. We'll show you how you can learn and apply psychological pain management techniques with the help of practical exercises.
The most important goal is to positively influence one's own experience - to deal with pain mindfully rather than in a fearful manner. You will learn how to increase your pain and stress tolerance so that your mental and physical resilience can improve. It's also about strengthening your own sense of competence and regaining confidence in your own body. This app shows you the most effective strategists for this.
The core of PAIN LESS are exercises and techniques for psychological pain management that are easy to carry out and can be flexibly integrated into everyday life. They are scientifically based and follow a holistic approach (the so-called biopsychosocial model). You can use it completely independently, at your own pace and regardless of the cause or location of the pain.
You will find exercises to reduce pain, to redirect attention, to relax and reduce anxiety, to mindfulness and body awareness. Through sensory, relaxation and enjoyment you can (re)discover your own resources. Numerous mental techniques, special breathing exercises, fantasy journeys and self-hypnosis exercises will help you. A favorable lifestyle - through exercise, social contacts and pleasant activities - can also strengthen well-being. The app gives you numerous suggestions.
This app was developed for people with chronic pain who want to do something self-determined or on several levels to deal with their situation. It is to be seen as a daily companion and coach for individual pain management. It does not replace medical/psychological treatment, but can be a useful addition to ongoing therapy or to bridge the waiting time for a therapy place. PAIN LESS can be used without a prescription and without a predetermined time frame.
Even in the free basic version we show you various exercises for pain control. With the PAIN LESS premium subscription you can enjoy numerous additional options. So that you can convince yourself of the advantages of the premium version, test the subscription free of charge for 7 days.
Usage instructions:
The exercises are sorted into different lessons by subject area. It's best to first get an overview of which ones appeal to you. It makes most sense to focus on 3-5 exercises first and really commit to them before trying new ones. Practicing daily and regularly is of course more effective than trying to catch up on everything in long intervals. Decide for yourself how quickly you want to achieve success.
Documentation:
The Pain LESS app offers a comprehensive documentation system that allows you to keep a pain calendar. You also have the opportunity to record your daily notes in a positive diary. The entries are collected centrally in the app, and you have various options for viewing them and filtering them by different time periods. You can also download the results of your documentation in a practical doctor's report and use it as accompanying material for therapy. For a better overview, we prepare your pain diary entries in clear statistics so that you can read valuable information about your pain experience at a glance.
