Abstract

Pain is a subjective experience and one that the medical healthcare profession will never fully be able to understand because the pain belongs to the patient. Ultimately, pain is whatever the patient experiences it to be, yet the traditional medical model approach is one that views the patient’s pain as something to be managed by the ‘professional’ [1,2]; who have been reported to often mismanage it [3].
