Pathway through Pain is an accessible digital treatment that helps participants respond more effectively to chronic musculoskeletal pain for a better quality of life. It delivers all the elements of an intensive Pain Management Programme (PMP).
The objective of the program is for participants to improve their health questionnaire scores for Anxiety (GAD-7), Depression (PHQ-9) and Musculoskeletal Health (MSK-HQ). This is achieved through the practice of pain self-management methods, exercise, lifestyle changes and cognitive approaches learnt throughout the program.
The program is a standalone intervention or works in conjunction with existing treatments to help reduce the need for pain medication and face-to-face appointments.

Pathway through Pain is recommended by NICE as a digital technology for managing non-specific low back pain that can be commissioned in the NHS while more evidence is being generated following an appraisal via NICE's - Early Value Assessment (EVA) programme.
Developed in 2011 under the guidance of John O'Dowd, a consultant spinal surgeon, and Dr Charles Pither, a pioneer of the INPUT unit at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital, where the ground-breaking Pain Management Programme (PMP) was first established.
