Chronic pain requires an integrative approach. The prescription of opioids is increasing in Europe, including Switzerland, for the -treatment of chronic pain, despite their modest effectiveness. Mindfulness-based interventions have demonstrated their effectiveness in the management of chronic pain. The MORE program (Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement) is an integrative therapy that uses mindfulness practices to help patients develop new positive beliefs and regain meaning, motivation and pleasure. The MORE program has been proven effective in reducing opioids and increasing well-being in patients suffering from chronic pain and thus constitutes a promising therapeutic approach.
