Abstract: Millions of individuals are suffering from Chronic pain, which is defined as pain that continues beyond three to six months. Old models focus on physical causes and often depend on pharmacological treatments. However, persistent pain after injury has subsided indicating a need for a more comprehensive understanding. Recent advancements in neuroscience classify chronic pain as a neurological disorder, opening the door for new and innovative treatment avenues.
