Expressive Writing Can Reduce Back Pain & Alleviate Pain For Cancer Patients Too (6 of 6 On Journaling‪)‬ Research Paper Breakdown

In this paper, patients with neck and back pain were asked to practice expressive writing while receiving physiotherapy treatment.



They wrote about their deepest thoughts and feelings in relation to the most difficult experience in their life for approximately 20 minutes.



The results showed that writing about emotional trauma helps reduce both emotional and physical pain in people with low back and neck pain.



Another experiment utilised expressive disclosure with prostate cancer patients.



Psychological and physical health tests were taken as well as blood and immune assays at enrollment and 3 and 6 months after.



Patients who practiced expressive writing had significantly less pain and required less doctor visits and medication compared to the control group.



So if you are experiencing physical pain, maybe expressive writing could help reduce it for you too.
