Sleep disorders and chronic pain are linked to each other bidirectionally. Both are related to affective disorders, fatigue, depression, anxiety and drug abuse, and have a significant effect on quality of life. The Interdisciplinary Pain Programme (IDP) aims to relieve the patients’ pain and improve their functionality by incorporating healthy postural, sleep and nutritional habits, relaxation techniques, physical exercise and cognitive-behavioural mechanisms.
