Chronic pain is a major global health problem that affects approximately 37% of people in developed countries [1]. In Canada, it is estimated that up to 25% of adults suffer from chronic pain [2]. Chronic pain places a heavy burden on the individual and can contribute to disability [3], depression [4], anxiety [5] and reduced quality of life [6]. There are also significant societal costs associated with chronic pain. In the United States, chronic pain is estimated to cost between $ 560 billion and $ 635 billion annually [7], while in Canada, direct health care costs are expected to exceed $ 6 billion and indirect costs due to loss employment and sick days are estimated at over $ 37 billion a year [8, 9].
The development and maintenance of chronic pain is complex, affected by biological, psychological and social factors [5, 10]. Therefore, the most effective pain treatment strategies simultaneously target a variety of factors, an approach that is used in multidisciplinary pain treatment facilities [11–13].
