Escape-pain - Self management for Arthritic pain using exercise

Enabling Self-management and Coping
with Arthritic Pain using Exercise

ESCAPE-pain is a rehabilitation programme for people with chronic joint pain of the knees and/or hips, that integrates educational self-management and coping strategies with an exercise regimen individualised for each participant. It helps people understand their condition, teaches them simple things they can help themselves with, and takes them through a progressive exercise programme so they learn how to cope with pain better.

Robust evaluation shows that ESCAPE-pain:

Reduces pain
Improves physical function
Improves the psychosocial consequences of pain
Reduces healthcare and utilisation costs.
