Galway Bay fm newsroom - The Centre for Pain Research at NUI Galway is recruiting people with chronic pain and at least one other long-term condition to take part in a major nationwide research study.
The study is open to people all over Ireland and will take place over the coming months.
GPs and other health professionals around the country are also being encouraged to refer suitable people to the study.
The Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) trial will provide eight online sessions to people in the comfort of their own home.
The team says at the moment, such supports are scarce and generally aimed at the self-management of single specific chronic conditions, such as chronic pain alone.
The ACT trial is based on emerging clinical science that demonstrates the usefulness of managing health conditions through mindfulness and psychological wellbeing.
